The approximate cost of operating the schools , excluding the universities , was , according to the budget 1983 / 84 , 36 . 437 billion shekels . When one deals with such a large input in terms of money , one must ask whether it is matched by output in terms of human quality . The school system is a monopoly operation ; there are no shareholders who , at an annual general meeting , might ask awkward questions ; but , if the question were put , I doubt whether any would give a positive reply .
