Tie the interest rate of all Student Loans to the same interest rate the Banks pay.

Created by J.M. on July 12, 2013

We petition that the interest rate for federal education and student loans be directly matched to the interest rate that the banks pay to the federal government. Students will have to pay no more for interest on loans than the banks pay, and that it shall be illegal for "for profit" student loan programs and corporations shall not be able to charge more than 3% above the same prime rate that the student would pay if the student were to fund their education via federally funded loans.
