I think this discussion is more about middle class kids going to college only to find themselves in debt and no way back into the middle class they were raised in. Solution: Take a few trillion out of the hidden pentagon budget. Provide health care inluding MENTAL health care for everyone. Provide nutritious food and quality health care in schools. Provide universal basic income for everyone. Make education free and diverse, from trades to philosophy.

I don't understand why we don't at least have some meaningful partnership with trade schools to get the kids who probably aren't going to college somewhere other than the service industry. That seems like a pretty basic ****ing idea.
