Increasing tuition fees might bring in some money in the short term, but not in the long term.

Less people get a good education because they can't afford it. Which means they don't get good jobs. As a result they have a lower income. And therefore tax income will be lower. So in the end no one benefits when tuition fees are being increased.


Education hasn't become less affordable, though. Everything is still paid for after you've finished Uni and you've gone in to the real world - you know, where for 99% of us, it doesn't matter how wealthy your parents were, anymore.
