What to do about it?

Belgian high education was the best in Europe as long as the government paid a standard sum to every faculty. Education was almost free, universities were good, output was of high quality, and input too (the poor could still study, which is good, but the less gifted were sorted out).

But then came European tolerance. Sickening.
