@UniversalTrader; both the Menzies and Whitlam governments sought to transform Australia into a harmonious 'clever country' - using free public education for all as Australia's great 'melting pot'.

Ever since then our pollies have pursued social division, turning the clock back by $Feeding $Greed while imposing HECs and fast-tracking education apartheid by pouring taxpayers' money into wealthy, privileged elitist, non value-adding 'private schools'.

The consequences throughout Australia of these regressive political decisions include youth alienation, homelessness, rising youth crime rates and youth self-harm.

Charting what our pollies have done to public education and the subsequent and unfolding consequences is a sobering reality check demonstrating the extent to which Australia has dropped the ball in its lust for satiating $Greed.

Who was it that brought in fees for tertiary education?
Oh yes, it was Labor the party of envy.
