Well let me try to put it in simpler terms for you.

Suppose universities decide to charge the full cost for each student.
Do you have a problem with this - people paying for what they get?
Then suppose Canada student loans are increased to cover these higher fees.
Reasonable, no?
So far we haven't changed things very much from what we have today.
Now we say : having "you" educated benefits the whole country so we will
forgive your student loans as long as you remain a member of this country.
That's it. What is so radical or silly Brad?

Yours in notoriety.......
