The communists are out flanking us in so many ways. Look at how beautiful this is for them.

Government controls student loans. Colleges would go broke if it weren’t for student loans. Not that the communists have to force colleges to be liberal, but what if colleges started to drift to conservatism? The government would cut back student loan programs and grants so fast it would make your head spin like a coed at Daytona Beach on spring break.

Don't be so sure. Some fine conservative colleges are dumping government loans. Hillsdale was the first. Grove City is almost there. Liberty and Brigham Young are working on it. So are others.

It basically works like this: the colleges line up their own lenders who can loan their kids tuition money at rates less than what the government does because they actually teach their kids something useful and the kids pay back the loans.

Meanwhile, the government loans charge very marketable engineering or nursing students the same rates as unmarketable pity me studies majors. It is a bubble waiting to burst and when it does the conservative colleges who have gotten out from under most of this sh*t will be doing just fine.
