Going to college is good but for many, not really necessary especially since the cost of tuition no matter where
is rather high and creating the problem of many have a large debt to pay if and when they do graduate.
The biggest mistake the Feds made was to underwrite the cost of college tuition via financial aid loans.
This had the unintended consequence of allowing colleges and universities to raise their tuitions and to
pay huge salaries to their teachers and administrative personnel.  Best thing the Feds could do would be
to end government underwritten financial aid loans and you will see tuitions and other related costs go
down drastically and the these schools of higher learning would have to really compete on the open 
market.
