Effective Treatment for the Student Debt Crisis Requires an Accurate Diagnosis

Abstract: ADDRESSING THE STUDENT DEBT CRISISAs outstanding student debt has expanded rapidly-to more than $1.5 trillion in 2019-many observers have concluded that the student loan system is in crisis. Student loans are now the second largest category of household debt in the U.S., exceeded only by home loans. Since the federal government guarantees most of these loans, all American taxpayers have an interest in whether this expanding debt could ultimately place a direct burden on them.

Future scholarship should further consider the ages of respondents' parents.…”
