In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents.
It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years.
There should be no profit in education or healthcare.

Fair to say they might as well roll up the NACC.
What a disgrace.

Recommendations and outcomes The investigation made findings of serious corrupt conduct against 2 individuals. It also concluded that there was insufficient admissible evidence to establish the alleged offences against either Mr Withnell or Ms Wilson beyond reasonable doubt. Key admissions and statements made during this investigation are not admissible in criminal proceedings. It is therefore not appropriate to refer either to the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions. The NACC Act invests the Commission with corruption prevention and education functions and the power to make recommendations as part of the Commissionβs investigation reports aimed at preventing corrupt conduct from occurring again. In this case, however, the Royal Commission made a number of recommendations to improve the budget process and agency responses to the Commonwealth Ombudsman, and they have since been implemented.
NACC clears Morrison, Campbell, Musolino, & Halbert of corrupt conduct.
Withnell & Wilson were found guilty of "serious corrupt conduct", but aren't referred to the Director of Public Prosecutions because statements they made to NACC "are not admissible in criminal proceedings"
The system works!
In the present context, however, of an investigation into allegations of corrupt conduct, we are not so much concerned with Diceyan theory of ministerial accountability and Cabinet solidarity as with personal obligations of honesty and good faith. Thus, although Mr Morrison may have been responsible to Cabinet for the failings of DSS β in particular for DSSβ failings in not preventing the shortcomings of the NPP and checklist β it by no means necessarily follows that Mr Morrison was personally at fault for not detecting the failings of DSS or that he set out to act dishonestly or in bad faith. The question of any personal shortcoming requires consideration of the system and circumstances of ERCβs operation at the time of its adoption of the NPP.
The passages clearing Morrison of fault are extraordinary
NACC says Morrison is technically "responsible" as cabinet Minister, but not "personally at fault"
If responsibility exists without consequence...then what does "ministerial accountability" even mean anymore?

The NACC has been an utter waste of public money. Its sole achievement so far is to further persuade everyone that consequence-free corruption and bastardry are fixed features of government in this country.
Headline: Matt Canavan elected Nationals leader and call for more Australian babies more Australian everythingβ
When introducing yourself to voters, itβs good to make sure you donβt get off to a creepy start
Been really getting into makeup tutorials lately, and I know Canavan loves a bit of coal cosplay
The NACC's view here is even funnier when you consider it's about a bloke who secretly appointed himself to multiple roles and thought no-one would find out.
@safety.bsky.app take down this guyβs account. Heβs intentionally being an offensive arsehat
Youβre a real dickhead
Nothing like intentionally leaving misinformation posted
And no-one will be charged because the NACC isnβt referring anything to the DPP.
So thatβs it.
Everyone walks away, no one who was responsible for the worst govt malfeasance in the countryβs history - costing lives and billions of $ - will ever face justice.
The NACC is for covering up corruption.
What a fucking crock.
Two mid-level officials found to be corrupt by the NACC, but the big guns get off scot-free forever.

Australian gas producers reap windfalls as Iran war chokes global supply Angela Macdonald-Smith Angela Macdonald-Smith Senior resources writer Mar 6, 2026 β 1.38pm Save Share Gift this article Listen to this article 7 min Australiaβs biggest gas producers are cashing in on the conflict in the Middle East and the suspension of Qatari LNG production, which has disrupted global supply, with deals struck at more than double recent market rates. Santos, the countryβs second-biggest listed oil and gas producer, finalised a deal with a commodities trader on Wednesday for the sale of an LNG cargo at about $US25 ($35) per million British thermal units (MMBtu), according to market sources, who were not authorised to speak publicly.
