So who should pay for it? Why don't you think that people should pay for the social benefits they receive?

Funny, cause that's exactly how it's decided now.

Admission at essentially every university in the US is completely need-blind. The only ways that income level can affect admissions are in the exceedingly rare cases of multi-million dollar donations or in the far more common cases of low-income students getting a diversity boost.
