And Sander's plan of taxpayer funded tuition would have helped the current problem of jobs left open due to lack of specific skills. It could also have been applied to a specific trade school so people with almost zip income could eventually fill those open jobs rather than sit idle in an low wage, unskilled position.  

The problem that exists, and what the left always fails to address, is that they don't do anything to cap the problem and control it.  Their answer is to just throw more money at it, but they never stop the runaway train.

Someone has said it and that is until they take away the government backed gaurantee the schools have no incentive to control costs.

But really this deserves a thread of its own.

Aren't you taking away the free market side of the equation, which is students are choosing to go to college even at the current cost. They still see a value in it, regardless of their interest rate on their loan. 

Here is the law of unintended consequences at work.  
1. We think college is too expensive
2. A solution to get the colleges to bring down the cost is to reduce the supply (the number of students)
3. Kill low interest student loans, reducing the number of people who can afford to attend college.  It would take several years for a college to really feel this effect, so you now have the first generation...probably ever... that has a lower college participation rate than the previous.
4. Tuition comes down!  Great!!
5. The US is even less competitive on the world stage because our education gap just widened.

Sounds like a great plan.

And the flip side is to continue on the same path, saddling graduates with tens of thousands in debt the day they enter the workforce, continuing to add to one of the largest bubbles this economy has seen.

Makes total sense.
