Agree

No, and higher education should be free for everyone

Technocracy might support the idea of free higher education as a means to optimize societal expertise and ensure a well-educated populace.

Neutral

Yes, but only if they are for profit universities

Slightly disagree

No, it is the student’s responsibility to manage their financial outcome
