Could the argument be made (in light of President Trump saying we need to import more college educated workers) that not paying for college for American students puts us at a competitive disadvantage?

Musk and Ramswamay criticize American culture. Musk says some MAGA's are racist. Bannon says musk is owned by the communist Chinese.
