Should College Be Free? | Above the Noise

College costs are insane these days. It’s getting to the point where unless your last name is Bezos or Zuckerberg, a college education kinda' feels like a pipe dream. One answer is FREE COLLEGE paid for by the government, which many liberals and even some conservatives are getting behind. But, “free” college really isn’t free. That money has to come from somewhere. Is free college really as good as it sounds?
