Tuition fee again

Well, tuition fees - a very popular emotional theme in the public in the last weeks. We saw demonstrations of students on TV and nearly every day we read new articles in newspapers or in the internet about this tax.
I agree with our carinthian black StrongOak in the point, that I also understand a lot of students who are angry because the winner of the last election, the social democratic party has promised to distablish the tuition fees. However I do not agree in the thing´itself - to be against tuition fees. Naturally I have to say that I don't have lot of fun if I have to pay the the fees at the beginning of each semester, but I think the amount of money which each student should pay to support the public universities and their facilities financially is absolutely justifiable. Above all each student who is not able to pay the 363 euros each semester can make demands on financial support e.g. in the way of scholarships. I also don't think that since the initiation of the fees in 2001 people were not able to study because of not being able to affort the money for it.
Furthermore most of the other european have tuition fees too - and most of them are much higher then the fees in Austria.
Isn't it a bit strange? - On the one hand a lot of people are complaining about the bad equipment the universities have and about the too little number of good internationally accepted qualified professors we have in Austria - and on the other hand we are not willing to contribute a very small part for our education system?
