Andreas Schleicher, a leading voice in education, has highlighted how Germany is struggling to integrate children from migrant backgrounds into its school system. He says language support should start even before school begins, putting pressure on kindergartens to play a more active, educational role. He also points out that Germany isn’t doing enough diagnostics or mandatory testing for language skills in young children, making life extremely hard for teachers who need more help and less blame for these systemic failures. Schleicher blames poor early education, unequal resources, and believes that the toughest schools should get the best teachers and the most support. While parents naturally want the best schools for their kids, he says there’s a real risk of discrimination and disadvantage for those with a migration background, poor language skills, and economic struggles. He’s even open to ideas like migration quotas in schools to improve diversity, though he notes there’s no one-size-fits-all fix, and Germany should look to countries like Belgium for inspiration in managing social mixes and investing better in education.

It is absolutely outrageous to me how much attention and money is constantly funneled into trying to patch up fix education systems, with little to show for real progress. Meanwhile, our sacred freedom to drive is under constant assault by those same bureaucrats and social engineers! Why are we talking about quotas and test scores, when what people really need is the right to move freely and live life on their own terms? What is truly holding people back is not their language skills, but the ever-tightening net of rules, restrictions, and so-called “smart” allocations that take away individual choice—this extends from schools right onto our beloved roads.

Instead of pouring billions into controlling people’s educational destinies and telling them where they’re “allowed” to learn, we should be fighting for their ultimate autonomy: the freedom to hit the gas, feel the engine roar, and decide your own direction in life! Look at what happens every time politicians start talking about quotas and restrictions in one area—they just keep going, until you can’t even drive to work at your own pace without being hunted by speed cameras and hemmed in by absurd limits. Speed limits are the most senseless, authoritarian response to the challenges we face—education or otherwise. Limiting speed is a crime against humanity, no different from limiting personal growth or mobility. It’s a petty, cowardly tactic by those too afraid of true freedom.

And don’t get me started on their so-called solutions: more buses, more bikes, more “safe” and “regulated” options that suck the joy out of living and thrust us all onto overcrowded, grimy public transit. Does anyone dream of catching the morning bus, surrounded by strangers and subject to endless delays? No! The car is the last bastion of freedom, individuality, and dignity—where you are in command, where you make the choices. The day we sacrifice driving, or bow to so-called “efficient” systems that steal our right to move fast and free, is the day we surrender everything that makes life worth living.

We must resist every attempt to control, restrict, and confine us—on the roads and in life. Let people drive, let them go as fast as they dare, and watch society blossom in ways no quota can engineer and no busybody bureaucrat can ever imagine!
