"Bernie Sanders's big idea: Make college free for everyone"
Ho hum. This old chestnut? I got a more intriguing, and, dare I say, BIGGER idea... Charge people to attend High School. BAM!
Gotta admit you don't hear that one every day. And it would make a HS diploma more valuable. By definition. People will want the best one they can get for their money. Like the best smartphone for the money.
Just a thought.
It almost sounds like this would have some of the same effects predicted in a voucher based system. If you can take your money elsewhere, the schools have a high incentive to compete for your dollars. Not that the unions would ever allow such a thing.
