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.
gollark: In many cases you just need to have *a degree* of some sort, even if it's completely pointless, because it shows... that you have the patience to do a thing for 4 years or something??
