[etni] Dr. Shlomo Swirski

This morning I went to a lecture by Dr. Shlomo Swirski  of the ADVA  Center - 
information on equality and social justice in Israel  - at Le'ada School in 
Jerusalem. I must thank the organisers!

Dr. Shlomo Swirski  was invited by active  teachers to  help provide an  
understanding of how the Israeli budget is calculated so that we can  better 
understand how education can be given greater priority in the future. This 
afterall, for me, is the key issue around which the  present crisis revolves 
(or should revolve). I have no background in economics , didn't understand 
everything but found the lecture extremely illuminating. It was accompanied by 
a powerpoint  presentation 
http://www.adva.org/view.asp?lang=he&articleID=488
 (in Hebrew) which appears on the ADVA site.  
 (www.adva.org). 
The subject of the lecture/powerpoint is  "There is economic growth and a large 
national income but there is a reduction of government expenditure"
(a rough translation).
