I keep hearing this sentiment and I'll be honest I don't understand it. Do you think it's not the pervue of the federal government to encourage access to higher education? Or is your argument that if there were significantly more limited access to funding for higher education that schools would have no choice but to lower tuition?
Edit: Realized I was probably straw-manning you with those questions. Sorry about that. Basically, could you elaborate on your position?
- SilasX 11y agoI'm pretty sure that's exactly what's under dispute: whther the funding actually improves access, or whether it just raises prices and debt loads all around while adding one more credential everyone has to get to take jobs that only needed high school in the 60s. By equating funding and access, you're defining away a critical dynamic.
