No one is talking about free education at Harvard. He's talking about community and state colleges.

To go to a state college as a resident it's an average of $10/year out of state residents it's $20/k but that of couse doesn't cover food/housing.

Meaning to get a 4 year degree a student today is shelling out around $60k at the lowest.. does that seem reasonable to you?
