A world-class education system where you can leave the $200k in debt and never exceed $100k in income.

We're at a point where going into college for non-STEM degree can (and likely will be) one of the biggest mistakes of your life.

But if the government paid for it, you would never see the $200k in debt. But you'd still be in debt - it would just be government debt. And as a citizen, your government's debt is still kinda your problem.
