College Student Drops 5-Word Verdict on Bernie’s ‘Free’ College Tuition Plan
If a 20 yr old can figure this out then why cant the rest of the liberals supporting Bernie figure this outSomething that has weighed heavily on my mind is the fact that most millennials are hoping, and voting, for free college tuition. What does free college tuition actually do for society as a whole, and not just for the individual?
It may make a student debt free, but free tuition as a whole could “cost the United States $70 billion per year”, according to Fox News. If you aren’t paying for your classes, then who is? Where is that $70 billion coming from? Taxpayers.
She’s concerned about the impact on the value of a college degree:
If college becomes free, that means more people going to college. […] If more people go to college, the value of a college degree will decrease. […] What will the value of a degree be when even more people have it? It is simply the law of supply and demand.
Students would get a free bachelor’s degree, but in order to set themselves apart, they would need to continue on with graduate school. […] How would free college help the societal issue we are already facing of students graduating only to discover they have to do more school?
