Because he's only paying a small fraction of the tuition. Students pay around $2,000 or so, but government subsidies add another 6,000 or 7,000 on top of that.

That's why doubling the tuition is more than fair to this guy - he's still costing the taxpayers a crapload of money, just not quite as bad.
