"How far to free? How much would it cost make every single public two- and four-year college and university in the United States tuition free for all students? Probably less than you think. By our estimates, after stripping off the amount that the government already spends to subsidize higher education — including at for-profit institutions — the total amount of new money necessary is less than $13 billion a year. Thirteen billion is a lot of money, to be sure, but within the scope of the Federal budget it is less than one tenth of one percent of yearly spending — merely a rounding error."
