Then they should make all state universities free or close to it for all degrees. Public universites are more expensive now than private universities used to be. Also, get rid of out of state extra charges. All citizens should be able to attend any US public university for free or close to free.
Other 1st world nations do this... Why can't we? Education is valuable and helps the nation and society. If salaries go down and tuition and malpractice keep going up... Our most educated will leave for better opportunities elsewhere. Why should they stay and work hard.. Only to get raped for their efforts? The US is appearantly no longer the land of opportunity it once was. The US will start to experience a brain drain. This isn't good for anyone!!
Ignoring for a moment the fallacy of "free" anything... the bolded portions are indicative of the trend that we are on -- but this is because of federal intervention, not for the lack of it. The "brain drain" that will result has been predicted for years -- we are watching Atlas Shrug... and the libtards welcome it (are blind to the repercussions, choosing to rely on perceived power and coercion as means to deal with problems).
