All college should be free. Id rather my tax dollars go to college students than billionaires and Israel.
This is an actual investment in America, not just the economy, but I don’t want to see Baby Boomer Part Deux when I’m eventually trying to retire.

It needs to be emphasized that this article is about a medical school, where a strong majority of graduates will become millionaires.
I’m all for increasing education funding, and medical school tuition is a real barrier for under-represented populations, but if you’re trying to divert limited funds into helping the most people, medical school is targeting the people who need help the least. Making undergrad at public schools tuition-free would do a lot more.
I’m not gonna tell a random widow how to spend her money, but if we’re talking finite tax dollars and public policy, that’s a very different question.
I’m sure there are many that go to med school because they want to help under-served communities but end up needing to chase $ to pay off student debt.
Completely agree!
