Because the middleman, those community college employees, vote for dems.
This is a very bad idea. Another reason....going to college or getting a job is a way to break away from the 'hood, for those who want to better themselves. Now everyone will just hang around for two more years, no jobs, a "college" that's a joke, no responsibilities. Where will the incentive be to get a job and pay for courses that are actually useful?
Another point. Many community colleges now have students that take their Junior and Senior HS course there while still enrolled in HS. They already get a free community college education. This will turn community colleges into high schools, but for grades 11-14. It will keep students from getting a responsible loan for a 1 year vocational training course. Mediocre will be defined downward.

Of course I was kidding, but you raise excellent points. As a community college professor I cringe at the idea of free tuition. No incentive to better yourself, as you pointed out.
