It will help if education costs are reduced. But this would require a different mindset on the part of educational administrators.

college education costs will never be reduced, they will just be supplemented by more government funding. the employees in education: teachers, professors, administrators, the Democrats know that they are "their people" and will protect those jobs. I give the Dems credit in this area, they protect the people who vote for them. whether its social services for the poor, government workers, teachers, higher education, media companies, etc. Its only the stupid Republicans who see a block of people who vote for them, private sector middle class tech and information workers, and throw them to the wolves to compete with India and China.
