Textbooks should be free for college stuents

The cost of college books shouldbe free or perhaps, more fairly,a listed item within tution fees. Textbooks should be free for college students because we already have to pay for classes and other stuff. Some of te classes that require books you have to get one or more book for that class. Finanical sometimes don't cover your boos ou have to come out your pocket to pay for them. Professors should make the textgbook for he class as a PDF file. Many textbooks I have brought it some times be 50 dollars. Some teachers dcoesn't assign text books. Students buy buy high text book and some doesn' attend to read it. I suggest students should buy they text books fro amazon or ebay they more cheaper. Textbooks is to high for college students because they have other stuff o pay for. In this article http://wellreadstudent.com/should-college-textbooks-be-free/ they say professors should the materials without regard to cost tostudents. What if we don't have money to pay for textbooks? So, if I don't have any money to get my text that mean I can't get a education. Many people today don't like going to college because all the fees they have to pay for. Text books prices can put a hole in your pocket. Some people say at your school you can take out a student loan or do a pament plan in order to get your books. One thing you can do if you don't have money for your text books you borrow a friend book n your class when hey not using it. Text books should come with the class. Professors have students buy the text books and some of the professors doesn't even use it. Textbooks should be free and education should be truly universal. The higher books is purchased books. Rentals books sometimes will have reasonable prices. You have to pay so much money for text books that are beat up and misuse. Today's students are seeing single books cost as much as 200 dollars(http://www.onlinedegreediscussion.com/free-college-textbooks.php). Text books should be free for students who can or can't pay for the text books. Many textbooks aren't worth a lot of money. Students complain when they paid a lot of money for textbooks and when they get it it's all write on or mark up. If we have to pay for books it should be brand new books. Colleges doesn't give students enough finanical  aid money to pay for their books. If you don't have money topay or books you should go to a college that have a book voucher. Its always good to find a teacher whohave a online book. Some professors don't require a textbook because they know the price to high for studentso pay for it. In this articlehttp://toped.svefoundation.org/2012/02/02/a-push-for-free-college-textbooks/ they say they don't know what wha a book cost 200 dollars. We shouldn't have to pay for books in order o get a good college education. I understand why we pay for the class but I don't know why we have to pay for books.
