Hey I'm on board with all of the above,
but withhold judgement based on two things
the total cost, is it sustainable
and how will providers react to receiving less monies for services, considerably less I would presume
In theory it is a no-brainer, take it out of my paycheck and there is no cost to me outside of that, it would soon just get washed in with wages expectations
and who doesn't want a better chance at retiring early

A motivated hard working go getter can still get a college ed at a public school without mortgaging her future.
But if you pay 100K to go to culinary school I don't have much sympathy. Maybe Stanford isn't in your future,
but you can have a damn nice future at some lesser in state option, whatever your state.
Stay in state, pick a major with prospects, don't party too hard and hustle your ass. It will work out in the long run.
Oh, and don't fucking have children until you are at least 34 and gainfully employed, and no more than 2.
Lecture over.

It's what they do. No other real explanation.
Why would anyone reward irresponsible behavior and penalize responsible behavior? I've asked this many times over the yrs. with no logical explanation. It's just what they do.
A scorpion, being a very poor swimmer, asked a turtle to carry him on his back across a river. “Are you
mad?” exclaimed the turtle. “You’ll sting me while I’m swimming and I’ll drown.”
“My dear turtle,” laughed the scorpion, “if I were to sting you, you would drown and I would go down with you. Now where is the logic in that?”
“You’re right!” cried the turtle. “Hop on!” The scorpion climbed aboard and halfway across the river gave the turtle a mighty sting. As they both sank to the bottom, the turtle resignedly said:
“Do you mind if I ask you something? You said there’d be no logic in your stinging me. Why did you do it?”
“It has nothing to do with logic,” the drowning scorpion sadly replied. “It’s just my character.”

Right Wing talking point? I've never heard any of the morons here reference liberal arts degrees. Psych degrees are right ahead of it w/respect to worthlessness. You don't click links, so I don't know how to have this discussion with you. This is one of hundreds of links that show which degrees will pay the worst return.
I'm against the mindset that you must have a college degree in order to exist in this economy. That's last century's thinking.
I don't believe in throwing good money away, just to give kids a 4 year vacation from life. If they want to create a program of approved fields of study that one can get for 'free', then I might be swayed.
Again...we already have debt forgiveness programs in place. We can do means testing for 'free' tuition, but an across the board program of free tuition doesn't make one bit of sense.
Trade schools? That's a different story.
Most useless degrees

Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.
