The spiralling cost of education is a bit illusory; the actual cost of education is rapidly approaching 0. I can gain free access to a stunning amount of front-line academic research, and anyone can have access to pretty much all of it for prices that are low relative to what it would have cost in the 80s.

You can probably listen to free lectures by country-leading authorities on any STEM subject. Well, TEM. I'm not sure about biology and the other sciences. Access to humanities-related texts is also unbelievable vs the 80s.

The cost of getting socially certified as having become educated is growing. Not the cost of education.
