Repeal UN Resolution 28: Free Education

UN resolution #28 is commendable because it provides the chance for free education to be brought to all students who want to get an education.

However, it should be repealed because it is too broad in its one line statement that all students under 18 should have free education. There should be another resolution created to ensure that there are standards and quidelines to be followed by U.N nations but still allow them to do 'Free Education' through there own systems, but to ensure that there are no loop holes or wiggle room for nations to squeeze by, so they can't provide Free Education if a new resolution is created.

Why this resolution should be repealed is that:

(1) There are no standards set out by this resolution for individual UN nations.
(1a) For example there are no standards to what kind of education these students need to receive, even if they are inadequate to get an adequate education

(2) Some nations are not able because of their economic situation to pay for Free Education for people below 18. This resolution doesn't make mention to that.

(3) The resolution is unclear about which level of education should be provided for free under the age of 18.

(4) Some United Nations nations have non-human species that may not have the same lifespan as a human. And Free Education resolution makes no mention of any kind of free education for these species.

I find a lack of standards good, because it gives nations freedom. On the same note, all nations can afford to at least ship people out to other nations to get them a free education, or some other way around it.

Ceorana finds that, unless you have a good replacement in order, there is no reason to support this repeal.

What if someone is very intelligent and graduates high school before they're 18? Must the state pay for college until they're 18?

What happened to my proposal.
It was deleted.
# 8 minutes ago: The proposal "Repeal "Free education"" was removed from the floor.

I suspect it was because you used, as the final line, "Repeals Abortion Rights". Oops.
