    i think its a very bad idea.

    Making higher education more inaccessible creates a larger divide between the richer and the poorer / a larger divide between the classes.

    The more inaccessible higher education is the more lower-income families there will be.

    The more lower income families (and areas associated with these families) there are, the higher the crime rates will be. It has been proven time and again that there is a positive correlation between lower classes (socioeconomically speaking) and crime rates.

    America is a good example, college cost far more in the US than university does in the UK (iirc) and to a lot of americans its impossible to get that amount of cash, and so they have little education and can only achieve low income jobs. Obviously they can work their way up, but naturally its a lot harder for someone with little education. And as a result there are a HUGE amount of uneducated americans that turn to crime. You only have to look at the overflowing prisons to see that.

    i think these costs will only make the rich richer and the poor poorer.
