Please let me know when you have uncovered the answer as when you do it will probably point to the same reason(s) the United States is the only so-called "developed" country on planet Earth that does not provide healthcare for all of its citizens, throws away more food than most countries combined while many of its citizens go hungry (including children) and espouses a "right" to guns so that those same children can become maniacal murderous maniacs that shoot up schools, churches, grocery stores and movie theaters on a daily basis. But what do I know, I just work here.
My daughter attended a well-known private university (that is also where she is finishing up her postgraduate/intern work). Her tuition was about $55,000 per year from 2018-2022. I told her that, no matter what, we would make that happen but grad school was quite the different story and she would have to finance that. Due to her academic performance and course of study, the school offered her an internship in which they pay for her grad school as she works for the university. As for the undergraduate tuition, I'll be in debt until the day I die on that.
Your comment was worth reading and I am honored by it.
I have no answers for your questions. There are many more similar questions that could be asked, but the OP was about education, so I tended to stick to that.
For full disclosure I am a fan of Bernie Sanders and only wished that more people actually read and thought about his plans.
Imagine a life where you did not have to worry about Health insurance, college tuition for your kids, daycare for your young children so you could work and a dozen other things that make sense.
I may be out in Pasadena in March for a conference. We could meet and talk about other questions.
I understand the gist of the OpEd, the point of my liberally applied rhetorical queries is that the pathologies pursuant to the issues are likely the same.

Carpe diem.

As for Mr. Sanders...
