This whole discussion is very US-centric. When looking beyond US borders it turns out you can have it both ways: Get a degree from a very good university without paying tuition fees (or at least not much). For example in Germany international students can study basically for free. It's similar in other EU countries and the universities are typically much better than US state universities. I truly wonder why not more Americans are taking advantage of this.
