Basically, free money just makes it easier for schools to charge more.

Kinda but not really, the rise of STEM careers have allowed schools to charge more for tuition because the lack of well paying jobs for under-educated people are declining while in order to go into a STEM field and compete you will most likely need a Master's.

One Of The Last Real Ones To Do It
I know dudes who registered for a semester just for the 3k check. On the flip I know more people who took out more, used it to get an education and couldn't find a decent job after.... its all just part of the same system
It's not "free money" it's a loan. And getting an education shouldn't cost so much.

everyone should, people just need to be better educated about financial responsibility and researching a career that has potential job growth and pays well.
i used to work for gurantee agency for student loans prior to 2008, and i saw how the system works and how colleges and banks/lendors are all about business. i knew all that shyt would come crashing down cuz of the way its setup.
so dont think of a student loan as help, its essentially a tool used to screw you into the life of a debt slave with a $80,000 loan that will take u 30-40 years to pay off at $500 a month.

I remember for a EU program i was talking to a few students from top schools like exeter.. and they told me their tuition was something like 4-5k a semester
That's how much mine is
Attend an in-state public HBCU and be a commuter student brehs
For one because it doesn't cost 50k to educate someone.Why?
For two because a more educated populace would be beneficial for everyone.
I get that it would be nice to have everyone "educated', but how are you determining that the current cost is "too high"?
What metric are you using?

I'm using the metric that it doesn't cost a university nearly as much as they charge to educate kids. People shouldn't be making profit off of students futures. It's a conflict of interest. Are you really trying to educate the students or are you just trying to turn a profit?

There are much poorer countries that offer high quality education for little to no cost. There's no actual economic justification for the rising costs of education in a rich country like the U.S.
Why must it be justified in the first place and to whom?
not that you're wrong, just curious as to how you have decided that education cost need to be justified...
