I would say that, if anything, state higher education is too inexpensive. Students come to the University for the "college experience," rather than a real education. On the other hand, I have seen many focused and capable people who aren't willing to pay tuition. I would suggest basing tuition on a sliding scale based on performance rather than a flat rate.
