I don't know about the rest of EU, but in my country we focus on knowledge, not on political correctness and politics. Thus we don't have many bureaucrats to feed so we can provide free education. WE also used to have a high barrier to entry in public Universities like tough admission exams, so only skilled people would be admitted. High barrier also meant very few dropouts.
In US they have a terribly large bureaucracy and funding that bureaucracy from public money wouldn't be wise or even possible.
In South Korea they have, if I'm not mistaken, one of the best higher education systems, centering on knowledge and performance, not on money and politics. China is starting to also have a very good high education system.
