Ok. Do that first and I might support it. But the guaranteed loans for everyone system of today has not only inflated costs, it supports a bunch of worthless crappy schools. Go look at the list of universities in the US, and find the bottom 100. They are as offensive and wasteful as a $10,000 toilet seat.

I agree. But that's not a product of free education.

It is a product of guaranteed government loans, which makes it “free” for universities to take students.
