Although the government will raise taxes, college should be free because it could benefit many people who want to go to college and can not afford it.College education should be free because without free tuition many students go into thousands of dollars in debt. According to Huffington Post, “ Student loan debt hit 1 trillion dollars mark last year, helping it retain it as the fastest growing consumer debt.” ( Free Public Higher Education Should be Considered). This shows that college should be free because of all the money students have to pay throughout their lives. According to Real Clear Politics, “ Obama’s plan is to pay for the schooling with higher tax cuts.” (Free Tuition at Community College Should Just be The Start). This shows that the only way with having free college is to have higher taxes and there will have to be some sacrifices made. By having higher taxes we would have a better chance of getting free college tuition.
