For the record, I’m not American nor live in the US, but I have a 19-year-old son who started attending the University of Chicago this year, studying economics. Just the tuition itself is $70k. My husband and I are lucky enough to be able to afford it - I still believe it’s an outrageous amount of money to attend college.
Honestly, same. I’m so beyond tired of this “free” stuff Americans like to latch onto, not realising how much is stolen from the average Joe and Josephine before it becomes “free”.
