"Status: Virtually illegal" Yeah, you got me (insert rolleyes). Car insurance also doesn't operate on a free market, for the reason you cite. I don't care that "few people" would argue it (appeal to authority; you like fallacies don't you?)

I'll try, but I don't see how I can make it any simpler. These "free market" schools receive payments from the government for each student they have. The government mandates that everyone attend school between the ages of 7 and 16 (or 6 and

No, since America can be used to refer to both the USA[1] and a continent/two continents, but there is no country commonly called just "Africa". [1] Please don't argue with this. This is common usage in modern day English, even if you might

I am certainly not responsible in any way for (for instance) Romania's poverty. There was this guy called Ceaușescu; he had a little bit to do with it.
