Donald Trump used to advocate for a single payer health care system like I think you're suggesting, sally....same as Bernie. That was before Trump became a Republican candidate. I don't know if he still advocates for it and I don't remember seeing a plan for how the cost would be covered.
I don't know how much community colleges are elsewhere, user. But I paid $750 this semester for my niece's 5 class itinerary at city college. Books were about $300. I think 'cheap' is subjective. Anyway, Hilary's tuition proposal is probably closer to your suggestion. It makes 2 year community college free. 4 year public college tuition would be lowered and supplemented by grants, with existing student debt being open to low interest refinancing. Her plan would be financed by increased tax on high income earners.
