Isn't there like free education?

@OfflineFriend Not really. I had a high GPA out of college - went to a state school, but between room and board, tuition, fees, and textbooks, it ended up costing me around $25000 per year. I was lucky to get a scholarship for 1000 a semester..

@Lyss23 that's good , but shouldn't taxes be used in scholarships or stuff like that ?

@Lyss23 And that is not at an expensive college either, right?

@Burnley123 Correct. If I would have went to a private school, I’d easily be looking at 40k a year.

NO! That's NOT what government and taxes are for.
