I don't think anyone thinks what he's promising is free for any of us. It will take reallocation of already existing resources and more tax.

Yeah, 18 billion more in taxes
KevinMenzel
Just doing the math, that's less than $60 per person - I'm assuming over 4 years? So about $15 a year, or pocket change per month?

He's also planning on substantially increasing taxes on people making more than $1mil, similar to the 50s.

But if you look at the facts, healthy and educated people make a really good work force, and when people have money, they spend it.

6) diploma is still considered a major achievement which goes far economically, and it is in Japan as well. Fact is, the US spends 17 TIMES

educated only means something in relative terms, and that's something nobody seems to understand. Your education level only works like 1)

7) the amount of people that countries that have free higher education do, adjusting for population sizes.

Catch your breath, Dr.. "credential inflation" is a massive generalization of a complex system concerning jobs and required training.

its a major issue though, and almost nobody wants to address it

5) people to get higher and higher education levels on the fantasy that it will make everyone's lives better. In Italy, a high school
DoctorWatchamacallit
4) credential inflation does not NEED to be a problem. Almost every first world country does NOT have this issue, because they don't push
DoctorWatchamacallit
3) with college educated people USED to be associated with high school graduates. What's more is that this is completely unnecessary.
DoctorWatchamacallit
2) that if you are MORE EDUCATED than the majority. This is the point of credential inflation. The same quality of life people associate
