That's just the restaurant game. You could say the same thing about Italian, Indian or Chinese spots 
I judge all Mexican joints by the al pastor and/or chile verde. Maybe you just need to stop ordering chicken enchiladas or whatever white boy shit you get. I used to go to a really good little spot on Winnetka and Vanowen called poncho's. They had dope fried cornish game hens. I laughed because my wife was reading their Yelp reviews and it was a bunch of Karens complaining that it was run down with crappy decor. Like, yeah, that's how you know it's a bomb hole in the wall ya dumbass bitch.

Food trucks have surprisingly authentic Mexican food in them usually.
At least in my area.

Chicken mole and chile relleno are two dishes that are always done OK but when actually done well are worth every bite. Good chicken mole? I’m paying. Full send.

I interpreted the comment to be more about entitlement, as in we deserve things just because

I think education is something that only the wealthy feel entitled to. I think everyone is entitled to an education.

I dislike how the US charges for higher education. I would like something different. Unsure what. But definitely not what we currently have.

I'm in this boat.
Obviously it's not as simple to just say "free university for everyone", because there has been a messaging problem related to higher education for a while now. When I was in high school, most of the adults in my life were pushing the "any degree works as long as it's a degree" message. The choice of higher education, and which subject to specialize in is highly dependent on economic situation and ultimate goals of the individual making the choice, and that sort of decision-making process should be the primary message pushed to prospective students.
There's also the problem of soaring tuition costs, even withing state school systems. State universities do not need to re-build every department's building every 10 years, nor should Dean's be making 250-500k a year. If the school is a research-focused school, then not only will more operational costs be covered by grants "this requiring less tuition, but the undergraduate experience will inevitably suffer compared to education-focused universities (I've been told this by several department deans of research-focused universities). If the cost of higher education will be shifted to tax-payers, then tighter control of inexplicable costs is necessary, and those that choose private schools should have to pay for the difference in total cost out of pocket.
I also understand that professional students are a thing, and so "free higher education" would need to be regulated to prevent abuse That said, I don't think it's unreasonable in the current capitalist hell that we live in to level the playing field to at least the bachelor level of education.
