I think if we're going to make additional investments in education part of the goal needs to be getting more people to graduate high school
The high school drop out rate in some communities is embarrassing. It's not like the kids don't have the IQ for it
No child left behind just became a matter of lowering the bar entirely.
If you want them to graduate more people they'll just dumb down the curriculum even more.

Absolutely.
College will simply turn into the new high school, even more than it is now.
Standards will drop even further to accommodate these new students.
And these students will leave, if they graduate, with degree that means nothing economically, having missed four of their most productive years, economically.
