I don’t that Finland is a good example: it is a small centralized country. In the US states can do whatever, so you can’t copy-paste finish approach.

- shiroiushi 2y agoThere isn't much stopping individual states from adopting similar measures.
- reliabilityguy 2y agoWell, they can't -- schools are funded by local taxes. Centralizing this across the whole state is a political suicide.
- shiroiushi 2y agoNo, I'm proposing the opposite: that states try to act more like Norway/Finland by themselves, instead of hoping the federal government will do so (which isn't going to happen). And yes, schools are funded by local taxes, but it doesn't have to be that way: if states really wanted to, they could take that power away from municipalities. The constitution gives the states broad powers to run themselves as they like.
