Why? An advanced industrial country needs more university trained professio nals than you can get out of the families rich enough to pay for the whole cost of a university education for their kids.

Before that people didn't have to be rich. Many people put themselves through college with blue collar jobs and no subsidies. They had to be smarter than today's freshmen are required to be, and they had to get themselves from the farm to the city, so most didn't try. But price did not exclude them. The ratio of faculty to students was a small fraction of what it is now.
Compensation should be proportional to risk (besides other factors). It's the opposite with government. In the US at least, government employees make more than their counterparts with the same job in the private sector, but they don't even have the risk of being laid off.

It was not uncommon for big corporations' CEOs to have started on the loading dock of the same company and put themselves through college from there.
I washed dishes for a year ;-) ...Jim Thompson
