If the Democratic platform doesn’t include universal healthcare, green new deal and debt-free college we don’t have a liberal party in the United States. We have two conservative parties who do the bidding of the wealthy. That’s why we need Bernie.

/u/hatewrecked2 on How come the United States can't afford free college for students while in Guatemala the national university costs about $12 A YEAR?

I'm not your personal Google, but here's the very first result.

Guatemala's spending on education is one of the lowest in the world. In 2007, the country spent less than 2 percent of its GDP on education, of which public primary schools received less than half. By the late 2000s, the majority of Guatemalan schools had grid-supplied electricity, allowing for the use of electrical lighting, heating, and computers and the provision of running water for drinking and sanitation. However compared to other countries in Latin America, Guatemalan schools score mid-pack on measures such as the supply of potable water, and near the bottom on others such as the number of bathrooms. Research has found that lack of infrastructure such as adequate potable water, sewage services, or electricity and lack of educational materials such as textbooks in Guatemalan schools can have significant negative impacts on student performance.

Education is not free, at least not high school by the government, the main average years of schooling in 2011 was 4.1 years per student.

25.5% of Guatemala's population are illiterate, with illiteracy rates up to more than 60% in the indigenous population. Indigenous people make up about 42% of the population in Guatemala and mostly reside in poor rural areas with little access to post-primary education. Compared to non-indigenous students who average 5.7 years of schooling, Indigenous students are at a disadvantage with an average of 2.5 years of schooling. Indigenous students achieve lower than non-indigenous (ladino) students in schooling possibly due to greater poverty and lack of indigenous language involvement in public schooling.
