Teacher with $303,000 in student debt...
#7
My wife and I didn't spend as much as this woman owes to send THREE kids to school...and they all graduated from top ranked public universities. That includes room and board for two of them to go away to school.

Just more proof that our current student "aid" is nothing of the sort. The way we do it now is killing our economy, and the future of our young people (and not so young). This woman deserves plenty of blame for the position she's put herself in, but we nonetheless need to reform the system that encouraged and enabled her to do it.

We need to get rid of loans and insist on control of tuition and other costs as a prerequisite of providing aid.
