I was talking with a friend the other day and we had a conversation that went something like this:
FRIEND: College is so important that everyone should go.
ALLEN: I agree. For most people, it is something they should do.

FR: We should pay for college, at least a community college, so that everyone can afford to go.

FR: Yes, society should. This should be something society pays for. Our society is better off if everyone who wants to go to college can afford to go.
AL: So you are saying that I should pay to send my neighbor's kid to college when I can't afford to send my own kid?
