The external benefits are quite clear to me. That they are not clear to you suggests to me that nothing I write or say will change your mind. So what's the point of asking me to list them? Are you merely trying to see if I understand the concept of a external benefits or genuinely trying know what possible external benefit there could be with someone being provided a subsidized education? I think you can think of some. |

I'm trying to know what external benefits you think exist and why you think they are uniform across all fields of study, which is a much stronger claim that you made. I cannot think of any such benefits.
E.g., one might hypothesize that people in college develop useful skills that benefit others in a manner they cannot capture as wages. But it's a little crazy to suggest that a women's studies major develops those skills to the same degree as a nurse.
