A reminder Israel has both universal healthcare and tuition free university...and voted yesterday to give $255 million to ultra-Orthodox programs and institutions, including yeshivas...that actually refuse to engage in military conscription...

I don't think you have to wait for 2026 on that one.
This is both wrong and off topic.
Israel health care is funded by a 5% additional income tax tier. non working people pay a significant fixed annual fee.
University is not free. $5K for the public institutions - which have limited admissions. $10K for many of the spill over private institutions.
Now - about those space lasers ....
5k is far from nothing, it is more than enough in any country than subsidize higher education.
Which is most of the world at this point.
This give a very different picture:
US is already very unpopular even among the traditionally very pro-US populations, which means anyone not distancing themselves from US will underperform and in many cases pro-US politicians will be ousted.
These posts are getting flagged but its actually vey relevant for US tech as US tech may end up blocked across the world with potentially reducing its userbase by %90 percent as US population quite small actually.
I guess we've obliterated two schools now. Ugh.
edit: Strike the rest.
People are now joking about Iran deploying inflatable schools as decoy so to make US spent their bombs on those.
> The Feb. 28 attack occurred the same day as a U.S. Tomahawk cruise missile struck a school in the city of Minab, several hundred miles away, killing 175 people. In the case of Lamerd, though, it involved a weapon that had been untested in combat.
