our whole college system needs an overhaul.
we are the richest nation in the world;
we totally are able to offer free tuition for every American;
we just don't have our priorities right,
and because we still let corporations get away with not paying enough taxes.

Please see the unfunded liabilities portion of the clock, which is approaching $100-trillion dollars. For the record, there is no such thing as "free" tuition. Someone is paying for that. Or the money is being magically printed out of the sky and virtually deposited in a bank in a foreign nation.

We pay too much in taxes

I completely agree with you Maruko. I think it can be with better priorities.
