Let me try to chill things out by putting forth some "realistic" proposals. (Realistic as in they actually have a chance to be adopted.) Free tertiary public education at the associate degree/tech school level as well as otherwise improving public education. Improved access to addiction treatment.
One interesting side effect of free 2-year tertiary education would be the impact on 4-year programs. Introductory courses at community colleges are essentially the same as their counterparts at a state university and will generally transfer as such. At present there is a balance between starting at a cheaper 2-year school and making a transfer or going to one school for a complete bachelors degree. If that is tilted to make the 2-year schools free then the 4-year schools will presumably have to generate income elsewhere (tuition, room and board) to make up for the reduction of students in the introductory courses. To add to the impact, introductory courses are generally the most lucrative courses at a school since they can generate the most credit hours per faculty member and typically have less academic building use per student.
If such splitting became more common, I could see four-year schools adding associate degrees to their mix of offerings to allow students who went there the full four years to brag about having two degrees from the school as a means of combating such things. Conversely they could design programs that would make it feasible to get bachelor degrees in three years, but only if all three years were spent there.
