Then what other program would you cut? Or would you stop giving entitlements to illegals?

The state budget has a finite supply of cash. When you're subsidizing higher ed at a significantly higher rate than other states, it's not a hard decision as to where the cut needs to be made -- especially when federally subsidized loans are available to pay for these things.

Really, the other 49 states are looking at these California students and thinking that they area bunch of spoiled douches. A whole $3000 per semester?? That'd be a bargain anywhere these days.
