There are capitalist countries in which tuition is free, so I don’t know if we can blame this on capitalism. Then again, most likely you’re still going to have a lot of other expenses like rent, food and possibly also books and stuff, so in that case UBI would be great.
Free public tuition, like we have in Norway, is a non-capitalist component of an otherwise capitalist society. Paid higher education, like in the US, is a capitalist component of an otherwise capitalist society.
Actually this is the result of strong and convincing left parties and the fear of conservatives that communism might get more approval. At least in Germany.
Also capitalism: “Lol sure, you can give us $40k per year to get this art degree”
