I thought the point was to make higher education more affordable and accessible. Perhaps you agree with me and understand that people willing to make a sacrifice to go to a University probably will have an appreciation of actually being there. Again, I support primary education and perhaps community college for every child, but I think a university degree should be a personal responsibility.

You don't think a 4 year degree is a net benefit to both the community and the individual? Or do you think we are playing a zero-sum game?

There are both benefits to the individual and to society, however the biggest (or net) benefit is to the individual
