Does she not realize her country has one of the best free public education systems in the world? 

Meanwhile poor Sam can no longer live on $200k per year in California (at least according to the headline that popped up in my feed the other day, I do not click on his articles).

Like most public services in the UK the reality is very different. The seven percent of the population who go to the private schools are way over-represented in all the areas of life that matters. That's why poor Lara has to scrimp to find the money for the ski trips - it's only by mingling with others at that level that success is guaranteed in the oligarchy that is the current version of the UK
