Geography often makes price comparison a moot point, and though education isn't in the same ballpark of necessities as food, rent or utilities, it's considered an item needed in order to achieve basic goals in life. You might believe that since 'the pursuit of happiness' is an ideal that each American is supposedly entitled to, we wouldn't allow a predicament that causes us to be depressed or to feel hopeless exist.
