It's almost like when the government subsidizes literally anything, the price of that thing goes up immeasurably. Perhaps, this is why the government should stay out of things
Earlier this year the Trump Administration capped federal PLUS student loans at $50k/year. Recently, Santa Clara School of Law announced a scholarship for all admitted students that will cut tuition from about $65k/year to…$50k per year.

So, because Trump capped the loan amount, he just saved students money. That will matter when they repay their student loans.
It's almost like federal tax prayers were forced to back student loans allowed collèges to charge exorbitant rates against people who may or may not be able to repay... in exchange for becoming indoctrination centers and churning out those who couldn't critically think or… https://t.co/Eti5DmbrJx

Student loan didn’t explode until Obama nationalized it https://t.co/Co0sAtp7yZ

Just another thing Obama ruined.
Look at any industry that has exponentially inflated above general inflation and you'll find massive government subsidies (e.g. college, health care, housing). https://t.co/krgwfQL5wK

It's like they'll never learn.
The more this episode⤵️ shows you how Biden's runaway, pathological carpet student loan forgiveness, hugely unfair and costly to the nation at several hundred billion $, yet forcefully pushed by Democrats, created the wrong incentives and made college costs even more out of… https://t.co/AjApitOgzH

Everything Biden touched was a loser.
The first of many universities to do this.

The art of the deal. https://t.co/qjAk3KFQ3u
Hopefully, others catch on quickly.
I remain unsurprised. Next up reduce it to 40k, and after that 30k, 20k etc. Let's get these grifters back in line and bring down the cost of government subsidized and enabled education inflation. https://t.co/FT82OoUoE8

As it should be.
Once you stop subsidizing schools they will lower the cost of tuition. This was just a license for them to continually increase costs https://t.co/mbbiXS7J3U

And take advantage of naive students.
Same thing with healthcare subsidies. Government needs to stop lining insurance company pockets https://t.co/CR5c02qhp6

end all federal subsidies, loans, and tax breaks.

Make education 100% free market for the 21st century
It would be the best thing to ever happen to prospective students.
Editor’s Note: The Schumer Shutdown is here. Rather than put the American people first, Chuck Schumer and the radical Democrats forced a government shutdown for healthcare for illegals. They own this.
