If you're a college student in America, you're probably used to being broke. It's not because you're lazy. It's because it costs a ridiculous amount of money to attend a university.
That's why there was recently a campus democracy rally in Ohio. According to Reuters, "The demonstrations, dubbed the Million Student March, were planned just two days after thousands of fast-food workers took to the streets in a nationwide day of action pushing for a $15-an-hour minimum wage and union rights for the industry."
"Organizers are demanding tuition-free public colleges, cancellation of all student debt and a $15-an-hour minimum wage for campus workers."

Do you think that the price of college should be lowered?

Yes and I believe the minimum wage should be $15

It is what it is... Your education is forever! Just don't major in "decision "sciences as list in one of the 33 strange majors.

The US federal gov't is currently trying trying to help all US public community colleges become tuition-free. This would allow students to graduate either w/ an associate degree, get major job training, or have 2 years of basic requirements complete enroute to a 4-yr degree. (California did this for years until a disastrous tax change ruined it, in part.) College costs, IMO, have become a disgrace & will ultimately harm the American future in many ways.

Germany is not socialist and it is practically for free, even UK is cheaper

I live in Australia, and we allow you to go to uni (college) and not pay tuition fees until you are earning $50k per annum, so you can pay it off yourself once you're better prepared, instead of paying upfront like in America.

@k-dizzle That's WAY easier said than done. You need an education to get a career unless you have some kind of connection to larger businesses. It's not easy, every college in America is expensive even if it's community. Don't be so condescending when people can't afford things, not everyone is so damn fortunate.

@Emily Weishaupt Actually, it most likely would. But even if it wouldn't, it would still greatly make it more affordable and open up the opportunity to many more. Which would be nice, I'd assume you'd agree.

I agree to a certain extent; however some companies will pay for a student to go for free or just give them a scholarship or grant In return they will be employed by the company I wish more companies did this because college is expensive

Who's going to pay for students to go to college for free?

So America is socialist now?
