Is school too expensive?

Is there an government education media complex?
Yeah I think so.

In 1969 tuition for a semester at a state 4 year school cost was about $200.00.
Five weeks salary at  a little above minimum wage would pay for one semesters tuition.

How many weeks will it take to pay for a semester schooling at today's wages?
Hmmmm...

Is it easier or harder to get an education?
Do yah think so?
Do you think?
