I had an appointment with my lawyer the other day about my will, and he was telling me that he had worked part time at the steel mill to pay for his college. He also explained that when he graduated he had savings in the bank. That could never happen today. For one thing you didn't need to pay high interest on the loan because of government grants, and tuition was lower. Today interest is so high it takes years sometime as much as twenty years to pay off the loan. This was all brought on by the Republican Party thru Alec. To think students are voting for the Republicans after what they are doing with the loan programs is unbelievable. The high interest does two things.
1. It cuts down the number of American students that go to school. The best resources a country can have are well educated people.
2. It allows schools to offer education to foreign students that pay much higher amount for their education.
There is nothing wrong with foreign students; but if there is one group that can afford expansion it the Universities. Somehow it doesn't seem fair for State Universities that were built with Taxpayers dollars to manipulate the system for their benefit and to prevent American kids the opportunity. All of this was done because of big money (Alec) controlling our government. That's why every young person in this country should sign my petition to give the country back to the people and level the playing field.
