Can you name a single country that has accessible, inexpensive, high-quality higher education system provided entirely by the private sector?

The view that free markets are some sort of magical panacea for education or especially healthcare strikes me as an extraordinarily anti-empirical -- if admittedly hyper-rationalist -- position.

This. You have plenty of data points to choose from. Show us. Empty ideology just won't cut it.
