Having a college education can mean an additional $1 million dollars or more in lifetime earnings. Yet its a hardship to ask those who have benefited from those additional benefits to pay a fraction of those expected additional earnings for them? Its fair to ask the average schmuck who is either not qualified or motivated enough to attend college to subsidize those who do, even though their earnings will not benefit? To penalize the carpenter, the plumber, the landscaper in order to provide their future bosses with a free college education? I am all for making sure that there is a path to college for anyone who wants it, rich or poor, through student loan programs, but I see no reason those who benefit shouldnt pay for it.
