Slightly agree

No, we should instead focus on decreasing the cost of education

Disagree

Yes, make the liability proportional to the expected yearly income of the degree offered

Disagree

Yes, but only if they are for profit universities

Very strongly disagree

No, and higher education should be free for everyone
