Maybe, probably depends on the degree

And when we are talking cost of the degree, are we referring to just the university academic costs? What about people who would want to quit their jobs to be a full time student? Who is going to wait the tables and answer the phones? Or do those people just get fucked on their education because they need to still be able to work low skill level full time jobs to be able to afford to eat and pay rent? So really to make things fair we should include the costs to quit one’s job and be a full time student, and just immediately replace all our low skill jobs with robots

And what happens when the value of that degree turns it into essentially a high school diploma now that everyone has one? And how would that factor into a possible huge labor surplus vs available jobs

Naw, degrees good. Free money good. Steal from corporations and rich people. Government misspent money in past so it’s ok

Its simple.
You just make a new, higher level degree, and charge way more money for it.

Yeah let’s not turn a hard eye towards university costs

Universities to democrat politicians in response to that: “Same team bro! Same team!”

Um it's not up to me but anyone over 30 should definitely be ineligible for the free ride. Old dogs don't learn new tricks.
