One of the reasons our collages are progressively more and more expensive while turning out a poorer and poorer product is that they are moving from education in practical skills to political indoctrination.
If collages were made to issue & back their own loans to be repaid over the next 20 years you might see that too change very quickly.
Colleges raise tuition every year. Some have multibillion dollar endowments. Collage aid leads to higher tuition for the same (or worse) schooling.
People like political indoctrination; they don’t like to think for themselves. They like it when people they “trust” does their thinking for them. They are too uninformed to change.
