Imagine how high it would be if public funding support for these initiatives ended altogether.

FICA tax dollars can only be invested in obligations of the US Government which severely limits it's investment options. Like we discussed before Bush wanted to privatize Social Security just ahead of the worst recession in years. Yes, the returns are modest but they are free from stock market speculation, management fees and people constantly borrowing or with drawing from their accounts.
State supported public university or a private university or college which you are free to go to if you have the money and lots of it?

let me explain the difference, in 90s taking 6 credits cost about 1500, going now for 6 credits cost you 5 grand
Of course it's not free but imagine the size of the student loans you would need without public support? Like wise without public support imagine the size of the loan your parents would have to take out just to get you through high school?
So just what measures do you think should be taken in order to lower the cost of public education?

Get the government out of it for one. They hand money out like candy. Two these colleges charge absorbent amounts for classes, need some control om the prices colleges charge. 3 they need to let people kid into their core classes earlier, instead of taking two years of classes you dont need
So you want price controls? And just who do you think has or should be empowered to set an enforce those controls? BTW. Who is "people kid"? Taking classes YOU think they don't need. Sounds to me like what you really want is a degree mill. There's plenty of them out there most private unregulated for profits who will be happy to take your money.

Controlling cost is not a degree mill, colleges are overcharging bevause the governments involved. It basically is a monopoly

It comes down simply to a demand for services and the cost of accreditation in the hope that you will leave knowing enough to make it in the world. But like any consercuk you want government out the picture but still expects it to
leave it's money in place . Government does not have a monopoly on public education. There are scores of accredited private colleges and universities out there you can attend if you have the grades and plenty of your own money . In most instances the thing you're not going to get is a private university education at public university tuition rates.

Did you go to college in the u.s, if you did not then you dont know. You have no clue how much the government gives out in loans to go to college. Money from the government equals higher class cost.
A city thing? NEWS FLASH: Those "city things" are also publicly funded . That's why you didn't have to bring a check along with you in order to enroll on your first day of kindergarten
But did you turn down any of the public funding assistance offered to you? Now it comes down to this question. Did you attend a private university or a state supported public university?

If you make 2 much money you dont get free money, and just because you go to in state school you dont get free money. Also even if you get free money it dont always cover everything. Peel grants are not handed out to everyone if your income is 2 high.
You should demand your money back...

the point of the post, college was cheaper before the government got involved
