Has anything that zero hedge reported on actually been true? At least CNN is right on some shit.

Silly little child, whenever the data makes you uncomfortable, you lie.
You don't trust the United States Department of Education and/or Wall Street Bezos all of the sudden? -
I say just let the government keep handing out whatever loans to anyone with a pulse. 100k a quarter at school will be special here soon.

College can be affordable and college loans can exist.RaceBannon said:

Yes it can. Make everyone go to CC the first 2 years for their AA and then they can move on to University.UWhuskytskeet said:

But the loans increase the cost. Colleges have yuge endowments and federal funding as it is. Giving kids loans they don't pay back, as in more government funding, increases what the college can charge for tuition.UWhuskytskeet said:

College is a business like an oil company or coal mine. They live off this bullshit rep as somehow being a higher purpose. They charge what they do because they can.
If they had to react to a market that didn't have free money for tuition the cost would have to go down. Starting life after college with a yuge debt actually hinders upward mobility. Those grads should be buying cars and houses.
Give better low cost alternatives for trade and regular college and let the masters of the universe burn their money at Ivy schools.
While healthcare costs go up, uninsured procedures like lasik cost far less today than they did.
If you want more of something subsidize it. Want higher tuition? Subsidize it.

Could work unless universities have to raise their tuition to make for the 50% loss of revenue.salemcoog said:

I think there are way too many under-qualified students at universities. I'd love to see Community Colleges fully funded and offer training in trade professions. More people would end up with a degree/certification in something they can use.
I really like the German model. In 9th grade you split off into two different schools. Either you will on to college prep until 13th grade (essentially earning your AA), or you go to a job training high school until 12th grade and learn whatever trade you decide on. Graduates either go to University or start an apprenticeship. -
Isn't that the American model, until Universities, the elites started demonizing trade schools? Not to mention all those skills being moved overseas?UWhuskytskeet said:
