The US Dept of Ed is the main lender. My used car loan is at 5%. My student loans are at 8%.

I?m considering taking a course or two & I?m curious about other experiences.

I mean, the cost of college these days is absolutely ridiculous. The government should pay for college. If public education is free, Why can't college be free?

And wouldn't this be great for the economy? more higher educated people means more skillful workers to make money for some company ...
