re: Bernie and warren: “K-12 is already free, why not college”

Do these people really not think there is a fundamental difference between k-12 and higher education?

I agree that free college would be a disaster, but I don’t think this is a good argument. What is so fundamentally different?

Teachers. Classrooms. Textbooks. All these things cost money. The government can tax us to death to get money.

And given the rising costs, much like with healthcare, if the GOP sits around and watches costs skyrocket out of control and claims “bUt MuH fReE mArKeT”, while a bunch of swamp creatures enrich themselves with student loan money... then people will vote in socialism.
