gollark: "You pick basically whatever, and we pay for it" isn't really a monopsony; people still have demand for each university, but the version of demand as "willing and able to pay for it" just becomes "willing to have it".
gollark: If the government throws piles of money at free education, you would, presumably, eventually get the majority of people going through university or something. Which would be nice, if it did not also cost a vast amount of money. And at the same time you dilute... whatever the degree is supposed to represent... and I don't really know what happens.
gollark: But that university has basically no incentive to have reasonable prices.
gollark: I said "many", not "all".
gollark: The government throwing money at it will not make that better.
