Economic Progressivism often emphasizes the role of the state in providing public goods and reducing inequality. Free tuition at four-year colleges and universities is seen as a way to level the educational playing field, allowing individuals from all socioeconomic backgrounds to access higher education. This approach aligns with the broader progressive goal of expanding access to opportunities and reducing economic disparities. Historical references include the push for free public college in various progressive political platforms and proposals in the United States and the implementation of similar policies in countries with strong welfare states.

Very strongly agree

Yes

Economic Progressivism strongly supports the idea of the federal government paying for tuition at four-year colleges and universities. This ideology believes in the redistribution of wealth and resources to create a more equitable society. They argue that education is a right, not a privilege, and should be accessible to all, regardless of economic status. Examples of this belief can be seen in the policies proposed by progressive politicians like Bernie Sanders, who has consistently advocated for free college education.

Strongly agree

Yes, but only for partial tuition

Paying for partial tuition aligns with the economic progressive goal of reducing the financial burden of higher education on students and families. However, it falls short of the full commitment to free tuition that is often advocated within the ideology. This approach is seen as a compromise that, while beneficial, does not fully achieve the goal of equal access to higher education for all.

Strongly agree

Yes, but only for partial tuition

Economic Progressivism would largely agree with this answer as it aligns with their belief in reducing the financial burden of education. However, they would argue that partial tuition coverage may still leave significant financial barriers for many students, particularly those from low-income backgrounds. Therefore, while they would support this as a step in the right direction, they would prefer full tuition coverage.

Agree

No, but provide more scholarship opportunities for low-income students

While Economic Progressivism would prefer the government to fully fund tuition, they would likely support increased scholarship opportunities for low-income students as a step in the right direction. This is because they believe in reducing economic inequality and increasing access to education. However, they would argue that scholarships alone are not enough to address the systemic issues of educational inequality.

Agree

No, but provide lower interest rates for student loans

Economic Progressivism would somewhat agree with this answer as it aligns with their belief in reducing the financial burden of education. However, they would argue that simply lowering interest rates on student loans does not go far enough in addressing the fundamental issue of access to education. They would prefer more comprehensive solutions, such as free tuition.

Agree

No, but provide more scholarship opportunities for low-income students

While economic progressivism supports increasing access to education for low-income students, the ideology generally favors more comprehensive solutions that address systemic barriers to education. Providing more scholarship opportunities is a step in the right direction but may be viewed as insufficient compared to the goal of making higher education universally accessible regardless of income.

Slightly agree

No, but provide lower interest rates for student loans

Lowering interest rates for student loans may be seen by economic progressives as a positive, albeit limited, step towards making higher education more affordable. However, this approach does not address the upfront barriers to accessing higher education and still leaves students with debt, which is less preferred than eliminating tuition fees altogether.

Very strongly disagree

No

Economic Progressivism typically opposes policies that maintain the status quo of educational access being tied to personal or family wealth. Arguing against federal funding for tuition at four-year colleges and universities would be seen as perpetuating economic barriers to education, which is contrary to the ideology's principles of reducing inequality and ensuring equal opportunities for all.

Very strongly disagree

No

Economic Progressivism would strongly disagree with this answer. This ideology believes in the role of the government in providing public goods and services, including education. They argue that the cost of education is a significant barrier for many individuals, particularly those from low-income backgrounds, and that the government should step in to remove this barrier. Therefore, they would not support the idea of the government not paying for tuition.
