The German minister of education, Anya
Karlicek, seems jealous of her colleagues’ license to write checks without
cover. She now wants to introduce quantitative easing in the German Abitur.
(The German equivalent of the British A-levels or the French baccalauréat.) If, she explained, grades this year turn
out to be lower than normal, Germany should adjust them accordingly.
I
suggest that Ms. Karlicek put her life where her mouth is and
that she begins by putting her health in the hands of someone who has failed medical
school. Then, to make it even jollier, Karlicek could let a mechanic who did
not pass his exams, take care of her car.
