I cannot debate this. However given our current situation and seeing our progress the rightful way would be for the government to invest more into education. Saudades is not going to help us. Being more pragmatic and planning accordingly will be much more beneficial
I suggest the opposite. The reason college tuition is so high is because the government backs those loans. Remove the government backing of loans thus lessening the availability of capitol to the educational system and I think you will find it will become vastly more affordable.
I am talking about playgroup!! And 75k is the least costly PLAYGROUP, playgroup is before starting nursery :P
Oh my God, 10k $ per year! That is way too costly, Indian colleges have reached 1/3 or your school's fees, my counterparts at private institutions were paying 1/3 and I have heard that people now in college are paying as far as 1/2 of what you have mentioned, so it is catching up.
This is patently false. Which nullifies the rest of your suggestion.

Which is at least partially based on public perception of the company.
> It's the government's responsibility to train people
That's... a weird thing to say. I like to think of myself as an adult. I chose the discipline to study, got loans (yes), graduated, and paid them off. The university I went to was private. At no time did the government tell me what to do.
It is the peoples responsibility to go into programs that will get the decent jobs. If those programs are full, they can ask for new colleges or universities to be made. Or, they can study themselves.
I've hired a number of self-taught programmers. They're not much different from people with university degrees.
How is it not already? The tech industry in particular has made sure it is.
It's the government's responsibility to train people and H1b failure is government's responsibility. Most companies dont even pay tax, do you really expect them to hire ONLY Americans?
Why would they when they can hire/outsource their work for half the cost.
Most big business have at least half their profits from outside the US. I remember IBM Global surpassing US profits when I used to work for IBM.
Cracking down on H1b is a bandaid over brain cancer. Fix the rot in education system, make education free, invest in tech else the big Businesses have no obligation to stay in US and pay more to do the same job (H1b or locals)
