It hurts on all levels of the income spectrum, from lower to upper middle class. It's real bad in Tennessee where our flagship public school is 389.9 miles away from what was our biggest city in Memphis.

I am shifting in the opinion that we need to start funneling more money in to our public urban commuter schools. Wayne State, University of Memphis, Towson University, University of Cincinnati, etc... Honestly, The amount of public money that goes to private universities in this country is disgusting. Also the effects of Economic Agglomeration are well known.
