Rolling Stone: Federal Student Loans Drive Prices Up, Drive Students into Debt Slavery
July 28, 2014
Rolling Stone magazine—not exactly a conservative publication—apparently ran a cover story last year on the college-loan bubble. (Warning: language. It is Rolling Stone, after all.) While the story presents itself as non-partisan and claims to criticize both conservatives and liberals, it agrees with the (previously conservative) observation that federal student loans themselves are a big part of why tuition costs are so high and increasing so fast. Maybe that understanding is becoming mainstream?
