The current system for federal student loans, directs students to private sector loan providers who provide interest bearing loans. This creates huge debts for students over the course of a college career. Create a program of interest-free student loans only available to US citizens who study at US institutions. Further investigate making these loans an Income deduction on federal tax returns as they are re-paid.
This would increase availability of loans to people, encourage college attendance for those economically disadvantaged and ease the debt burden of those entering the workforce
