So if I want a MS in TEFVS and I'm willing to pay for it the government is going to stop the school from offering me the program?

Sounds like the free market will determine what programs are offered. Not every school offers every program now.
You may find the obscure program of your choice, but it may be several states away from your comfort zone.

YES! because it never turns out that the government does’t get involved with it’s checkbook and rules.
As I see it, colleges and universities are enticing prospective studies with the following conditions:
1.) Give us 4-years
2.) Give us $100,000 in fees
At the end of those 4-years, the college will give the graduate a piece of paper with his/her name on it (diploma). The question is: How valuable is that diploma? Is it valuable at all? If there is NO demand for a certain degree or a placed job can not even pay back the student loans, then that is a good indication that the degree in question is worthless and should not be offered.
Should there be courses on Greek Mythology and Japanese Haiku poetry? For the benefit of satisfying an elective course, yes. Should DEGREES be offered for Greek Mythology and Japanese Haiku poetry? That is the question.
No one is preventing you on learning any subject. It can be done on-line or at the library. What I see the colleges and universities are offering some degrees that are worthless and consumers (prospective students) should be protected from that. It is no different when investing firms were offering to sell junk bonds and penny-stocks and misleading investors on the true worth of such bonds and stocks.
No, they will no longer subsidize your wanting the degree or the college for offering it.
