The problem is not that his bill is too low. It's that the others are way too high.

You think university education is worth 1/5th that of high school education?

I think its worth goes beyond a mere interchange between the student and the education center. And I think the long-term benefits it brings to the places where it is heavily or completely provided by the state should trump the short-term benefits brought to those who speculate with it.

I’m not saying the bill shouldn’t be paid by the tax payer, but you were arguing about the total bill, not who pays it
