Should college be subsidized?
All U.S. states subsidize education for college students, mostly by charging below-cost tuition. Nearly-free tuition is available in many European countries and has been proposed in California (see p. 80).
Should the government subsidize college education so that it can be provided with very low tuition? Or, should college education be allocated in a market system, in which prices are set by supply and demand?
