Lots of references in the linked article.

This is another Leftists generated "crisis", near and dear to their hearts, re: Higher Ed.

When there is no actual crisis, generating alarming headlines 24/7 is just as good as "actual fact". Unless, of course, you really dive into the details of the so-called crisis.

Sorry, I should have specified that this is an article from the Manhattan Institute, and hat tip from Mark Tapscott at Instapundit.

The people advocating this are doing so because most of the debtor students who have dificulty paying it back are women. Its an extension of welfare and securing the female vote.

Great article. I’m not a Millennial, but my law school debt was in the six figures. It went up during the few lean years after I graduated due to recapitalized interest. But I worked hard and lived within my means, and paid it off early.

The kids have a hard time with
student debt especially because they can't get jobs in their profession.Walk on the street and ask the young people and forget about a poll.Things might have changed under Trump.My poll was 4 years ago in person.

Democrats and Millenials live in a post-reality environment.
Facts will not sway them.
