Education like a business or education like a right?

The problem in specific make me feel very worry, because the fact of that exist people that think that only for have money they should be study make me feel that they are incapable of see the reality, especially if they think that charge for education is a normal think, because this form of think return to normal the capitalism abuse, where the ideology is based only in the money and how to do more and more of that. However, make me feel a less of better that people think that the superior education should be free, should be a right, because is of this form how the system should to works, from the equity. But now, is important to understand how I feel, that I see how is that works the 2 perspectives.

The phenomenon of the present problem is that actually, in Chile, the number of private universities that charge for education has been continuously growing, and it has did that appear different perspectives about the problem, about we can see that for one hand exist people that think it’s okay, and pay for education is a normal things the present. However, for another hand people think that the fact that the universities charge for education is a really bad thing, because the education should be free and for all.

For understand the problem first we can understand the 2 perspectives, and the people how think that is normal the university charge for education probably think too that not all the people merit study, because of this perspective we can understand that in opportunities, in this system, if you don’t have a great score in the PSU for study in a public university or you can’t have a socioeconomic situation where you can opt to some scholarship, you can’t study without money to pay the education, and this give us a great problem because would be the cash enough criterion for select the students, and not her academic capacities.

In the other perspective we see that the education shouldn’t be charge, but it should be free, so from this idea we understand that all should have the same opportunity of study, and the only thing that works as a criterion of selection will be the academic capacities, where if you want study, you can do it, because anything could prevents them.

If we compare 2 ideas we say how one works more for the usefulness for the society, where obviously in a capitalist society will be advisable that in a present where the majority of the people want study, make the superior education a business is a really good idea, but only from ignore the great number of people that couldn’t study for don’t have enough money, and from this ultimate idea is that we understand why the second perspective works more for the human component, where the superior education is more a human right –always should can opt- than a business, because the focal point is in the people and her reality, not the capitalism and make more money.

After all the explication of the perspectives I think that my sensation is more understandable, where I want to add that my final sensation is of displeasure; because for more that the people think that the system should be different or participate in different activities for make pressure in the government, the actual system works from the money and not from the people, where we are more a number than a person, where we rights are more a shadow than a something with real importance to the government
