    You know, I feel something very wrong about this story. And this is how other countries can afford giving free higher education not only to their citizens, but also to foreigners while our own country does everything to make education available only to a bunch of well-off citizens?
    It’s simply unfair. It’s just like no one wants Americans to be educated (and we are not that much educated, in fact. I mean, in the average). No education and welfare for everyone – that’s our future?

    Germany is only doing that because it's population is decreasing so fast. They need educated workers to make money to pay all their retirees. Germany is an illustration of the problem with low population growht.

    A PhD in Australia costs nothing. It's seen as a public good. But you have to be a citizen of Australia or New Zealand or a permanent resident.

    Just in case anyone is interested.
