Trade schools would be included in my plan.
I also think college should be streamlined.
I really dont care what the chemistry major thinks about hamlet.
Eliminate classes not directly related to a degree.
So then the Republicans ruined the university system.
Maybe we should give the Dems a chance to fix it.

I've said in the past that the US could easily transition to the Dutch model of healthcare. It still keeps private insurance but requires those companies to operate as a non-profit for the most part.
As to your anecdote, Mick Jagger lives in the US.

Now to be fair here.
High schools are pushing kids into college.
My daughter is a sophomore and her school is all over her about higher education.
It make them look good.
The kids are in the middle getting screwed

Those already exist. This will mean that the smartest kids from each demographic will be able to go to college.
Why don't you want smart, poor, white kids to go to go to university?
It also gives kids freer access to trade schools. Isn't one of the biggest complaints of the Right that no one knows a trade skill anymore? This would give kids the path to pursue a trade and get off the street.
The price tag may seem scary but in the end it essentially solves most of the problems the Right complains about. It gives us a student population that will actually achieve things. It brings back American Made. And it gets kids off the street because it gives them options other than slinging drugs on the corner.
In the end the American economy will be stronger and we will easily make the money back.
So where's the bad?
