State governments have decreased college funding for state institutions fully aware of the reality that the Feds allow them to shift the burden onto students. Colleges exploit the students knowing they have no real world experience to gauge the true cost of the debt and their earning potential.
Meanwhile, for those who manage to increase their earnings potential after graduating college, like I did, the government gets the benefit of extra tax revenue. Allowing the government to effectively double dip. Keep in mind, until the recent student loan payment freeze Trump put in place (that’s expired now) the Student Loan program was a profit generating program for the federal government.
That’s deeply unfair.

How exactly is it a double dip?
