It's not fair because
a) once they graduate and are earning they are paying bucket loads of more tax than if they sat at home watching Deal or know deal. Get it? The money tax payers pay to train them comes back in the first 10 years of their working life
b) It's an investment in the community... like health care, like early and secondary education. You want ALL users to ALWAYS pay? That's where the logic of your argument leads.
The issue is how do you see society? As a a group of individual who all looks out for number one... or as a community who all chip in for what's best for EVERYONE.
