That sounds to me like a recipe for having lots of
people with Engineering degrees serving pizzas and
flipping burgers, at the expense of the tax payer.
Tax paid tuition (I refuse to call it "free" because it
is not) does not mean you will become what you study to
become even if you are any good. There is this magic
idea that making access to college easy will ensure
that people fullfills their dreams. Fat chance. When
everybody has a degree, degrees are worthless.
TBH it is time for people to realize that the
pussification process we call Degree is not the end-all
be-all of either culture or professional success. If it
becomes insanely expensive people should give it the
middle finger and do something else with their lives.
I have been through a State backed college and even
been involved with the directive. The way they waste
money in superfluous crap while at the same time
providing non-professionalizing education is
disheartening. I wish nobody to be forced topay for it
with their taxes.
