>>(I think you get the point)
The "point" seems to be a mislead since in
corrected 2014 dollars, the cost of education has tripled since 1974. Housing, medical and other consumer spending is laggardly by comparison.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
