No way the College Cartel goes along with this plan...
there's a lot of forces at play here. Clinton is seemingly proposing "obamacare" for higher education.
- put the nation on government-subsidized, and controlled, tuitions
- apply heavy taxes elsewhere to supposedly "pay for it,"
- apply highly "progressive" tuitions means-testing for families (ie. upper middle class will pay through the nose),
- make universities co-conspirators and beneficiaries, just as health-care companies were in Obamacare, to get buy-in from the recipients of the cash and regulations
- As money is coming from the FEDS, expect controls and programs on everything from diversity quotas to rape-awareness to get the .gov money
- They will have 95% buy-in from progressive/secular college administrators
the best thing you can do to lower tuition is end the guaranteed student loan program. when the private universities don’t have the guaranteed money coming in you will see tuition go down along with the universities ending useless degree programs that dot lead to work.

Sure they are. That’s what the 350 billion is for.
