Are there questions science can never answer?
Debate between a user and Maya Angelou on DebateAI.org
Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "Are there questions science can never answer?". Your opponent's style: Maya Angelou
This house will make education free up to university level
You're conflating "free" with "elimination of scarcity," which kills your entire argument. Free tuition doesn't mean free education, it means someone else pays. Teachers still cost money. Buildings deteriorate. Materials expire. Opportunity costs remain brutal, whether hidden in taxes or tuition fees. The real question you're dodging: who bears the actual burden, and does shifting it create worse outcomes? Countries with "free" university often ration spots viciously, exclude poor students earlier in secondary school, or produce unemployable graduates. You've redistributed cost, not eliminated it. Show me evidence that free tuition improves social mobility without devastating quality or creating bottlenecks elsewhere.
