it is my humble opinion that this sudden interest in reducing the cost of tuition for young people is a panacea to keep that demographic, who largely voted republican in the midterms. they are dismayed at the cost of their health insurance, and they have yet to figure out that the subsidies they may receive for health insurance will soon prove to be taxable income when they do their taxes. so throw them a bone with tuition help. never mind that we are already trillions in debt.
