the problem with our government ‘forgiving’ student loans is not only that many struggled for years to pay their debt off, and expecting them to now pay off someone else’s debt is unfair. it’s that colleges should be held accountable for this.

We pay for k-12 now...to me, this is an extension of that philosophy.
there is a very strong public good argument for k-12 education. but again, i ask, what is the justification for a two hundred thousand dollar english literature degree from a four-year sleep away summer camp for grown adults?

Again I say that it is that excessive bloat that is the problem, not that education (or even literature specifically) does not contribute to society in meaningful ways. I expect we would find the same excess if we allowed K-12 to manage (and bill us) similarly.

you’re still not making an argument for the essential nature of college, which is a fairly significant prior if hoping to spend trillions of dollars establishing a new life-long entitlement to what you’re saying is a “social good.” to a humanities degree.
