Subsidizing student loans means that the taxpayers are helping to pay for the tuition. Why should the taxpayers be forced to do this? A College education is a choice. If an individual wants to go to college and has to borrow money, then they should pay the market rate.

If more students are forced to pay the market rate for a college loan, then I am certain that the "Education Bubble" will burst and tuition rates will begin to fall.

If the bank is only giving me 0.000376 APR for my money, why isn't the student loan rate a 0.001392 APR?

That's four times what they're giving me.

That would be fair.

Here is sarcasm tag for all you retards unable to recognize sarcasm.

The real problem is the use of a percentage of the increased student loan interest rate to pay for Obamacare.

Absolutely no correlation between the two activities, except in the minds of serial politicians.

Makes as much sense as tying state lotteries to education.
