    I came up with a plan to lower college tuition years ago while tripping. It starts with the decriminalization of all drugs. And to prevent gangs and what not from profiting colleges will get the exclusive privilege of making and selling all drugs. Drug proceeds would be split between lowering tuition, setting up more college ran centers, and rehabilitation of drug users outside the colleges programs. With a small percentage allowed for the college to profit.

    For the program itself, i would have the colleges set up drug manufacturing classes which should benefit students in other chemist and medical fields so it should draw in quite a few people. With the drugs made they then would be sold by college ran businesses whicj could also employ students to have on the job experience and to keep more money in the colleges sphere of influence.

    At these centers where drugs are sold, there will also be areas for people to partake in the more dangerous drugs, which should be inheritly safer now that its not being tainted with other nonsense. There would be medical students watching and taking care of their patients making another facet of experience that will help in future jobs.

    With all this taking place in the college system, and with plenty of opportunities to view patients, it should be easy to spot people who are in a real bad place that would benefit from health and life counseling. So for the people in need of help, counselors will approach giving an offer to participate in a program to train psychology students that comes with a heavy discount for their drugs while in the program.

    My whole idea had several beneficial aspects for all of the country.

    Lower colleges tuition

    Raising the educational level of general poplus

    Lower drug dependencies rates

    Lower crime rates

    Getting people help who need it

    Reduction of drug over doses

    Less burdens on are justice system clogged up with drug related crimes

    Hampering outside nations who push dirty cheap drugs into our country

    Extra tax money

    Etc

    Idk if anyone has any comments on my wistful thinking, but im open to revisions of my plan.

    TLDR: Decrimnalize drugs and make collegese create dispense and sell said drugs to fund the well being of our society.

      This is a very American answer. The easy and best solution is to tax the ultra rich and provide college to all Americans.

      Jesus fucking christ this is the stupidest shit with the purest potential. I’ve never loved and hated anything so equally. I’m left completely indifferent.

      This is legalizing drugs with extra steps. Tax the shops and manufacturers, direct that money split into social programs, safe centers staffed by professionals and school funds.
