GOP wants to give tax cuts to the rich and corporations on the backs of students. Student debt is a huge problem for middle class. This makes it worse. This also makes it almost impossible for people to attend graduate school. What is wrong with this picture?

This move ensures only the legacy students and the wealthy will be able to get a higher education. Closing the door to the possibility of improvement, - what was the American dream. Wow.
