However, making tuition free could potentially lead to an increase in taxes, affecting everyone, not just students. For instance, countries like Germany and Sweden that provide free college education have tax rates around 45% and 57% respectively. This could be burdensome for those unable to afford such a jump in taxes. Additionally, free tuition might devalue a degree as more people would have access, making it harder to stand out in the job market. How could we address these potential issues while still aiding students financially?
