This thread is working off the assertion that our top universities are overrated.
What you're talking about is just introduction to the concept of pricing. Each person has to determine for themselves what it's worth. It will be worth more to some than to others. Everything of economic value gets priced, even if it's socialized.
You can't escape the market. If you think you can get a better value at a cheaper school, or in a different country with socialized schools, go there. Some will let you attend their universities for free even if you're not a citizen. Meanwhile people from all over the world will continue to scramble to get into our top universities. Maybe you know something they don't.
