Norway
Someone posted something on Facebook about Norway and free education the other day. Actually that is misleading. Countries like Norway charge for the education they offer. They just do not charge the students. They charge the citizens who provide the money to pay for the teachers, buildings, power, insurance and all the other expenses. Governments never give anything away that they have not already taken from someone else except debt. You can get debt from government for free.
As an example the Per capita debt of Norwegians is $131,220 per citizen which amounts to 141% of the Gross national product. Their external debt amounts to more than $644,500,000,000 which is quite a lot for such a small country. These figures from the World Bank are at least three years old. That means every child born and registered as a Norwegian owes more than 3 times what American babies owe.
So it is not really free after all is it?
There will be "Benefactors who exercises authority one over the other" that will be knocking on the door of those children of the State of Norway as soon as they are old enough to start working to pay the interest on that debt.
Just remember before you accept a free ride make sure they are taking you to a place you want to go.
Denmark saving or debt
There was another photo with a similar message floating around about Denmark.
Now Denmark is more fiscally responsible than Norway and even the United States whose debt for every new born child starts at $59,000 dollars at birth and will probably be far higher when they start working and paying their share of the interest.
Denmark's debt for new born per citizen starts at 28,778 which is only 59.8% of the GDP. This is partly because of the fact that one of their biggest industries is shipping and they charge lots for bringing things in and out of the country, which makes for very high consumer taxes. As an example they are third in the world for the cost of an Iphone at almost a $1000 dollars per phone.
Everything else is expensive too. Food is expensive, shopping is expensive, drinking is expensive and affordable rent or property is almost impossible to find. With all that Denmark individual income tax is really high for a normal person it starts at about 50%.
So the extra money you get in Denmark is just a subsidy to what the real cost of eating and living will be and it is not really free because the government just forces your neighbor to pay it.
Those who are willing to hear the whole truth give us hope. Those who do not condemn themselves.
In early America most schools were free including Harvard if you could not afford it. But this was because the people supported it with charity not forced taxes. In fact all our welfare was the result of charity. Charity and earning your way is what made America great. That is what the definition of Religion use to be.
The idea that something is free because the government gives it to you is the definition of insane. This is one of the main causes of the social ills of today and why Christ and Paul along with all the prophets make charity which is love one of the most important element of the gospel along with forgiveness.
Do not expect the powers of the world to forgive your debt or your children's debt. Forcing your neighbor through the power of government to pay for benefits you want is covetous. And applying to such Benefactors who exercise authority one over the other will make human resources of us all.
People should understand that public education is welfare and there are two types of welfare.
