Australia only developed country to cut spending

Australia only developed country to cut spending : "The funding reduction — down 4 per cent compared with an average OECD rise of 49 per cent — resulted in private spending on higher education, including students' tuition fees, surpass government funding."

Education cuts don't heal and our lack of capacity to produce skilled and intellectually capable people is becoming evident. Education has been neglected and the band aid, air head, cost cutting is advertising itself loudly and clearly. We need to take ourselves seriously instead of conning ourselves that various levels of kindergarten activities are what different age groups need. It's cheaper that way but it is not effective.
