There are currently 387 universities in Germany with a combined student population of approximately 2.4 million, paid for by the state resulting in a thriving economy.

Not, as I've said before, that I'm against abolishing or reducing tuition fees but it needs to be only for the best students doing subjects that the economy needs. No point spending taxpayers' money on those who are only going to end up doing the jobs they would have done if they'd never been to university. That only makes it harder for firms to find employees and drives the need for more immigration. Also the cost is not just the fees but the loss of tax/NI they could have paid.
