Feels like something my wife and I signed up for ages ago and haven’t seen a penny. Not that I find it at all surprising, but it feels like it got pretty close to actually happening…

If you aren’t from the US, how was your higher education experience?

    Making college education free is what I was thinking. We already funded public education, what one more for college/universities? Our country is mostly operated on high skill workforce, so why not make it a policy in this country?

      We should, at minimum, undo the cuts to college that happened in the great recession. I’ll be over here holding my breath.

      This feeds into so many other systems as well, part of why medicine is so expensive is because of how expensive it is to become a doctor, both in sheer cost and in the barrier to entry for those less wealthy. Ditto for architects designing housing, city planners, economists, etc.
