Every time you try and counter that argument, one of them points out to you that the guy on the H1B visa working in the cube next to him got his Masters Degree for free in his home country.

“Higher education is a right.”

Critical thought doesn’t seem to be working, but more “free” classes will help?

I think gasoline should be free. And I think water should be free. And I think medicine should be free, and transportation. Yep, Utopia is attainable if you have a good credit card. Who is going to pay for it. Don’t ask.

Your response is simply this ...

The guy in the next cube did not get a degree in Theatre dumazse.

I want free Victoria Secret Models. Why bother with the books, if you can skip to the end.

At first I thought this was satire, but no. Maybe giving him a free class in economics might not be a bad idea.

Higher education is a right

There is no right to use force to enslave providers to provide it for free or to enslave someone to pay providers to provide it.

The grades he had to earn to get into that program (and the academic rigor involved in earning those grades) probably would have earned a U.S. student enough scholarships to get a full ride here.
