Related: About this forumTYT: Fox Reacts To Obama's Free Community College Plan
"Fox News host Steve Doocy complained on Wednesday that President Barack Obamas plan to make college tuition free for some students was not fair because he had just paid off his student loans about two weeks ago.
In his State of the Union address on Tuesday, the president talked about his plan to to spread that idea all across America, so that two years of college becomes as free and universal in America as high school is today. The $60 billion dollar proposal would provide grants to pay 75 percent of the average cost of community college for two years, and participating states would be required to cover the rest.
I want to work with this Congress, to make sure Americans already burdened with student loans can reduce their monthly payments, so that student debt doesnt derail anyones dreams, Obama explained on Tuesday.
But Doocy reacted on Wednesday by suggesting that every student should be saddled with debt because he was."

The ONLY reason Doocy said that is because he was given it as a talking point.
