It's an interesting non-sequitur; maybe you can explain what you're actually trying to say? If you're just trying to say that we shouldn't have any subsidies for college education, I'd question whether you think this would impact our country's ability to innovate, and I'd suggest that the subsidies become more merit-based rather than automatic.
