He needs to go further and stop the loans all together and force these mega schools to go free if they're state run colleges. It's bullshit that these schools are fed federal/state money and then continue to paywall education for everyone.

I'm financial hardship is he going forgive my loans?
Hi financial hardship, I’m dad!
Another thing they need to do is be ban public schools from accepting any international students until all qualified American citizen applicants have been accepted. We pay taxes for these schools, we should be the ones using them first.
That's a completely ridiculous stance. Most international students are part of exchange programs meaning that for everyone attending one of our schools, one of our students gets to study abroad in a school from their country. These exchange programs allow people to be exposed to new ideas and perspectives and promote cross-cultural understanding, both by our country's students experiencing other cultures and from foreign students sharing their perspectives and experiences with people at home. Isolating ourselves like that would reduce the spread of knowledge and ideas, for literally no reason.
Yea.....no. that's some isolationist crazy shit.
Then our taxes should stop funding these institutions.
Exchange programs better schools, which is why we have them. Also research between schools and countries are highly beneficial which I would argue is the most important part of higher education. If you want to send all American students to trade schools they wishto go to and qualify for, I'm on board with that. The value of Universities is being diminished and viewed as grade school by to much of the population.
They love international students because they pay the full price. The cost for American students is partially payed with tax money.
