The GOP package, called the “Lowering Education Costs and Debt Act,” consists of five bills that the senators say will address the root causes of the student debt issue such as the increasing price of college and students taking out loans they can’t afford.
This doesn’t feel like it’s really going to do much. More information for those looking at loans is good, I’ll admit, but this doesn’t seem to do anything to help those already drowning in student debt.
(And the GOP never misses an opportunity to take a shot at Biden do they? I think they just want that sweet interest money.)
It kind of half addresses just how out of control costs of education itself has gotten. Not only tuition but cost of rent or dorms. (Though I guess that could be seen as a separate issue?)
Costs are still rising everywhere and doesn’t seem to be stopping anytime soon.
