Actually, it is true that you can “get paid” to go to a UC. If you are independent (over 24), make less than 80’000 a year and live with family, they give you extra money for room and board (but if you don’t have to pay rent, well you can just keep the money or use it for food/clothes etc.). Maybe if you are dependent that’s also possible, but I’m not sure.

What we think should or should not be done with taxes depends on our own personal views and should NOT be reflected in the answer here. Personally, if I were a taxpayer, I would rather have my money going to students (even to give them full rides, why should they ever get in debt to go to school?) than for war or prison inmates. However, this is just my opinion and it certainly does depend on my political views (so do yours mom2kids, whether you think so or not).
