If college was free, the people who were going to college despite getting tens of thousands in debt + have no job will now get to go to college with no debt + still no job. The ones that were denied an opportunity of college education will have access to it now. The keyword is access.

Having financial stability as the determining factor to getting higher education... that's got to be the most insensitive line of reasoning, something you would find in a poor country, not the richest, most spoiled, and world leading education-centric country on earth... Also, "it makes degrees in general a bit more trivial" is an even stupider reason because it fails to see education beyond an economic investment.
