Do you see school as a right or a privilege? I see it as a privelege. Sure, it helps the overall country to provide free education, but there are many many countries in the world that do not, and many children in poor countries never get a decent education because they are forced to get a job at the age of 7.

I think most of the people who responded to this thread are looking at the question too literally. Clearly school is a requirement in the US; that is a fact and is not debate-worthy. However, the debate is not about that; the debate is whether education, in a general, worldwide sense, is something that every human being is entitled to, or whether education is a privilege; and whether it benefits countries to give their citizens and education or not.
