Education in Chile

            During last years, we’ve been participants or spectators of many student strikes that pose an improvement to educational reform through plans to improve the quality of education.

            Everybody remember the "Revolucion Pinguina in 2006" year where presented the same problems that we face today and weren't resolved efficiently. This is why this year were resumed the protests for get equity in education, equality of opportunities regardless the money, lower university tariffs and end with the profit in the education, because when you start a university career you end paying a mortgage credit but in education, that must to be a right and not a privilege.

            In Chile exists a free trade in education and somebody that has money can open a educational enterprise. Therefore the education quality doesn't matter and just matters make money. Also there isn't an institution that regulates the equality in the new establishments that they are appearing. Compared with Latin-American countries, the Chilean state just pays the 15% of all that needs in university education.

            Chile invests in education 0.3% GDP and 3.73% in Armed Forces; however this makes no sense because at the moment there aren't war conflicts with other countries that it could justify this money. Therefore the armed forces are the best the best option for give more money to education and get a universal free education in Chile.
