Edit: nevermind. Saw the rest of your comments it's all bad faith BS about how the affordable education = government coercion. But also, somehow you went to school for $5 a year. No. For 95k a year for a four-person household you certainly could not afford to send two children to universities that were $50-70k/year - which was the price of standard state universities at the time. Not without going into significant debt. My parents scrimped and saved for decades and commuted hours every day to teach in higher-paying school districts while living in a low-cost-of-living areas and I was awarded all kinds of academic scholarships and I still had to go into debt and work all the way through college. And they were lucky enough to be working when the school districts would still give yearly raises, which has all dried up now. The financial aid calculations that determine "ability to pay" are just bullshit to make you take out loans.
