The two biggest issues are the overpriced cost of a college degree, and the amount of interest that is charged on a student loan. The Federal government involvement in higher education is the main problem. They created FAFSA which looks at your family income to determine whether or not you will receive any help with the cost of college. So you have an 18 year old kid who can vote, fight in a war and be charged as an adult in a crime. But you're going to base how much FREE taxpayer money or Grants they can receive based on how much money their parents earn or have in the bank. Once again another government system that penalizes you for trying to be responsible in life.
