US colleges and universities have spent millions on new buildings, technology, salaries, and athletics, while constantly increasing tuition rates. School leaders have largely adopted a college-as-a-business approach to education. The result has been massive increases in the costs of college for many Americans.
Additionally, we are told that college is a must, and that a bachelor's degree is now equivalent to a high school diploma.
The solution is to have wealthy parents or live in poverty to in order to obtain a degree.
Millions of students have been placed in a no-win situation, and have essentially been taken advantage of.
As a result, all federal Stafford student loan debt should be decreased by 50%.
This may allow millions of students to achieve the American dream.
