[quote=Anonymous]PP You seem to be missing the point.  This plan will not curtail tuition costs.  In fact, it will drive costs up.  All it really does is shift the burden to the taxpayers down the road.  I don't see how providing what is in essence free tuition is going to help our society or guarantee that these same individuals will not end up on the public doll.  How many overpriced liberal arts majors, attorneys, etc do we need?

I paid my own way through school (working throughout the school year and 2 jobs in the summers) so under your scenario I do get to complain.  Under Obama's plan, I, as a parent, will have no incentive to help my child with tuition costs.  He/she can borrow heavily, pay back little and I can funnel the money that I would have otherwise used for tuition to help out in other ways.  The taxpayers will pick up the costs.  My DC will learn nothing of responsible choices and may or may not end up with a diploma that will enable said child to earn a living.  Good thing I will have that former tuition nest egg to bail the kid out.
