    Problem w/college costs is what some public colleges charge 4 tuition. The loans are secondary result not cause.

        @SharylAttkisson I really respect you but economics contradicts you. Students couldn't pay these costs if they weren't subsidized. #Loans

        @SharylAttkisson but tuitions are on the rise because of those government loans placing young Americans in a pickle to be educated or not.

        @SharylAttkisson Would there be so much administrative overhead if students paid out of pocket?

        @SharylAttkisson The problem is many applicants choose colleges that are way out of their budget range. Many should attend Comm Coll first.

        @SharylAttkisson One student loan prob is interest rate. Was spose to be low but no longer the case. Banks can still make $ on lower rates.

        @SharylAttkisson Lax gov't backed student loan practices caused increased cost & loss of quality in ed. Now it's biz 1st, not education.
