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

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.

That's sort of along the lines of what happens here

@st_cruz I sure as hell don't want to tax the upper class to pay for my college tuition because they don't deserve the punishment

Bernie Sanders for president of you agree! He has a tax plan that will pay for it:)

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.

So America is socialist now?

College definitely should be lowered. All of my paychecks go towards tuition and I only have about $3 left for myself. It induces sadness

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

@st_cruz I understand that they would raise taxes but even taxing the upper class won't be enough to pay for every student's college.
