State budgets hold the key to funding schools and universities, yet are plagued by hidden deficits and misleading accounting. While governments spend 36 percent of the economy, they only collect 26 percent in revenue, leading to a staggering 10 percent deficit. Mounting health and pension obligations are crowding out education, forcing tough choices like larger class sizes and unaffordable tuition. Without greater transparency and public engagement, investments in young people and innovation are at risk.
