There is evidence that Nkrumah's free education policy has produced some of the world best scienists,medical doctors,engineers,professors and teachers.If Baidoo has met students from our premier universities who cannot put complete sentences together,I have also met numerous students from Ghana's mushroom private universities who are even worse.Baidoo should rather address the issue of the worsening corruption and mismanagement of politicians and Government officials of today,which is the underlying cause of all our current problems and stop beating about the bush.How many Ghanaians can afford to pay medical bills in private hospitals and educate their children in private schools without Government intervention? I am surprised why Baidoo doesn't know that public school education is free even in capitalist United states.Otabil is 101% WRONG.

Mr Philip Kobina Baidoo when you make reference to my articles, please be accurate and do not put words into my mouth. You stated and I quote, "I will ask again, what makes people like Mr Kofi Ata assume that the private sector cannot manage our health and educational requirements"? Where in my aforementioned article did I make such a claim?
I only questioned the basis of Pastor Mensah Otabil saying that the state should get out of hospitals and schools so that the private could take over because the state is not good at managing them. I challenged that assertion because even in the most advanced countries with heavy private sector engagement in most or all areas of the economy including health and education, the state has not abandoned health and education for the private sector to take over. As I have been living in the UK for sometime, I gave the UK example. You are aware what exist here in the UK when it comes to health and education and the involvement of the state and private investors. My point is that Pastor Mensah Otabil was wrong to ask the state to get out of education and hospitals so that the private sector could take over and run them better. The state involvement should not stop the private sector from investing in health and education. Indeed, it's already happening in Ghana and therefore his call was needless. I also gave examples of private sector failures in the health sector here in the UK to prove Pastor Otabil wrong. I never said that the private sector cannot manage health and education requirements in Ghana.
Another important factor why Pastor Mensah Otabil is 101 percent wrong is that health and education cannot be left at the expense of profit. That is why direct state involvement is critical and Pastor Mensah Otabil's call is out of order and self-fulfilling profit motivated agenda more than nation building objective.
Could you do me a favour and mention a country that has developed solely on private education and private health care system as Pastor Mensah Otabil is suggesting? It takes a partnership approach by both but with the state leading.

Stop making a fool of yourself. Are your kids attending any of the hideously private schools in England? Do you and your family rely solely on the services of "Harley Street" doctors or you use the NHS in England? The is no evidence that capitalism saved the IRISH from the dreadful famine that they encountered.
Below is a fine example of a small country like Cuba with no natural resources. Read.
HAVANA — Cuba is out to boost its top export, an ever-more critical pillar of its economy. And it’s not sugar: hired-out Cuban doctors earn the Communist government over six billion dollars a year.
Medical services exports “are now the leading source of hard-currency income for the nation, and have great potential to keep growing,” Foreign Trade Minister Rodrigo Malmierca said at a recent event.
About 40,000 Cubans doctors are working on contracts in 66 countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
The next big-ticket client could be Brazil — the booming South American giant is considering hiring 6,000 Cuban doctors to help cover its health care staff shortage.
It may be somewhat surprising that Cuba — once known for its exports like sugar, cigars, citrus fruits and rum — now has four main pillars of its state-controlled economy.
Only one — nickel — is a traditional commodity, bringing in $1.1 billion a year as the country’s fourth most important import. But in this nation of endless white beaches, nickel is still less than half as significant as tourism, which brings in $2.5 billion a year into government coffers.
Impressively, in a Caribbean country of just 11 million people, remittances — money sent by relatives abroad — also end up giving $2.5 billion to the Cuban government. Why? Because their family members here spend it mostly at stores owned by the government.
Each of those big-ticket, hard-currency spinners however pales in comparison to the whopping $6 billion Cuba earns each year in exporting professional services — sports trainers, teachers and especially doctors — on overseas contracts.
At home, doctors earn between $25 and $41 dollars each month, and they are not allowed to leave Cuba at will.
If they were to head to the nearby US state of Florida, where Cubans can work legally just after arrival, they could earn a physician’s salary of $150,000 per year or more.
Private mechanics, waiters at restaurants catering to tourists, and even hairdressers can earn far more than do highly-trained doctors in Cuba, making overseas medical missions appealing to this country’s doctors.
The Cuban government acts as a middleman in the transactions, hiring out their medical staff to foreign countries.
The amounts Havana charges for the services of their workers are not made public, but payment, in hard currency, is for significantly more than what the doctors are paid personally. The government keeps the difference between its contracting price and what it pays the Cuban worker monthly.
It’s a big business that is getting bigger: Havana has said it wants to increase the number of countries paying to import Cuban doctors. In a nation proud of its public health tradition, it also is charity in some cases: Cuba gives doctors’ services to 40 countries that cannot afford to pay for them for free.
President Raul Castro’s government recently vowed that medical missions, which started under his brother Fidel Castro back in 1998, would be maintained and even expanded.
“We are going to continue assistance in solidarity to countries that cannot pay for these medical services, as in the case of Haiti,” said Health Minister Roberto Morales.
At the moment, 26 nations are paying the Cuban government to send them doctors, at a salary level determined by the Cuban government.
Morales said money earned from the medical contracting arrangement with Venezuela, for example, “helps pay for expenses we incur in other countries” and is also used “to improve workers’ health care and working conditions.”
The politically based economic arrangement with Venezuela harkens back to the Cold War, when Cuba exported its sugar to the East bloc for cut-rate Soviet oil.
Cuba hopes one day to be able to tap yet another source of revenue: the cash-strapped government believes there are vast crude oil assets off the island’s north coast.
But as long as it is unable to access them, Cuba remains economically isolated and dependent on Venezuela, which provides the communist island with cut-rate oil and is the single largest importer of Cuba’s medical export workers, taking in about 30,000 of them.

Poverty of Intellectualism...
The countries on top the world education and health index, including Cuba are those that have nation run free education and health system (national health service). Countries that have the best technology and food programme are those that are run by the state. Russia has technology advantage over U.S. because the state is in its control, the same applies to China and both China and India with huge populations are able to fee their people because the state control both production and marketing of food. Dr. Baidoo stop hanging your rag of intellectual poverty here on the web. Dr. Mensah Otabil has told us that though he collected school fees from our children he did not train them for the job market. He and others told us only yesterday that they prefer nationals of South East Asia to their own Ghanaian graduates.

When the private banks in the west such as RBS,ABN-AMRO, LIYODS etc went bust due to greed, the state came up to their rescue with billions of taxpayers money.
All the evidence proves that TV evangelists are another bunch of "greedy bastards" in the race in "Raping God". Perfect examples are Jim Baker,Jim Swaggart etc. Otabil is no different.
This is a fine example of what state controlled health service did for capitalist oriented Brazil.
Last summer, long before before Brazil was demolished 7-1 by Germany in the World Cup, the country faced a crisis of another sort. Millions of citizens marched in cities across the country to demand wholesale reforms to the country’s crippled public health care system, which faced huge shortages of doctors and a failing infrastructure.
That’s when the tiny island nation of Cuba stepped in to this neglected area of the world’s seventh-largest economy.
Under Brazil’s Mais Médicos (“More Doctors”) program, which pays foreign physicians to work in underserved areas of the country, Cuba sent 4,500 doctors to rural areas in the Amazon and to the underserved slums known as favelas in its booming cities. The move angered Brazil’s doctors’ unions, who protested outside hospitals, and the Brazilian Medical Association filed a lawsuit in the country’s Supreme Court questioning its existence. Protestors denounced the program as only a temporary solution to a systemic problem, saying the changes should come internally, not by importing doctors.
Brazil currently has 1.9 physicians per thousand people, according to the World Bank, one of the lowest doctor-to-patient ratios in the world. In the country of roughly 200 million, the disparity is so pronounced that some remote areas have virtually no doctors to serve patients. Cuba, on the other hand, has 6.7 physicians per thousand people, the highest number of doctors in proportion to population in the world, and some of the lowest annual costs for medical care.
To Mr Baidoo, capitalism is flawless.
