The Nobel prizes in chemistry and physics are a recorded measure of the cream of the crop in science. But if you want to name some physicists or chemists from Finland who made great advancements in science but didn't get a prize, be my guest. I'm guessing that whoever named Finland "the best education in the world" is using poor criteria to make that list. Do you think that having everyone get merely an above mediocre education is better than a system that produces great people? As far as your second paragraph, I'm not familiar with the specifics of every American scientist who won a Nobel prize, but I doubt they were all children of rich people who could afford to send them to elite schools. Maybe having a monocultural European-based society in Finland has something to do with fewer school shootings and fewer students who end up with a poor education. Note that the increase in school shootings in the US correlates with a movement to promote cultural diversity ahead of the long existing British-based value system in the US. It doesn't correlate with the availability of guns. "Why should I give information to you when all you want to do is find something wrong with it?" |
