Solar panels on Swiss rail tracks - 100 metres laid and switched on, 6 homes powered for a year, and enough track space to power 318,000 homes.
Swiss rail is public and so all benefits will be public.

I can't decide if #TrumpsTariffs are closer to
Brexit promises to "make Britain Great again... soon... eventually..." (Never)
or the beginning of a #TrussLettuce meltdown
"Trust me, I know what I'm doing"
The 1st is more likely (pain now, pain later),
but it seems closer in mind-set to the 2nd

I'm not sure it would fix the HE funding crisis.
And it perpetuates 18+ adults depending on their parents for HE access.
Parents are expected, (based on income) but not _required_ to fund HE living costs; if they don't students suffer.
It's unfair to penalise people for decisions of their parents.
