        To be fair, that is mostly fedgov. Individual states supported local public universities, just with budgets, not massive loan programs.

        i was going to say that the type of person who went to college a hundred years ago was far more likely to be upper-class-ish so this likely doesn't mean much but then i googled and holy shit dude

        Yet when the regulatory response is to defund "unprofitable" majors and start appropriating endowments to pay down student debt they're going to pitch a fit.

        I lived how in a he last administration they started calling ‘problems’ market failures, even though the issue was regulation and intervention. This is what Brin is doing here

        Serious question because I’m too lazy to research: were universities really affordable ever?

        Yes. 40 years ago a kid could work over the summer and part time during the war and pay the entire cost of attendance at a state school.
