    Education went up in cost because nothing was stopping it from going up and everything else is so broken it took the place for it.

    Well yeah, that’s my point? Why do you think their customers are able to pay any amount? Because they’re taking government loans.

    Healthcare went up because insurance companies. They are a useless middlemen.

    How did insurance companies increase the cost of healthcare when their goal is to decrease it so they can profit more?

    Cars really haven’t gone up that much.

    New and used cars definitely haven’t gone down in price despite increased mechanization, improved shipping, etc. But yeah out of these things they have the lowest infinite free money behind them.

      No it is because stuff around it was broken.

      Expensive for us not for them. Given that insurance doesn’t actually payout the cost doesn’t matter to them.
