But I do agree with you, the Dept. of Ed. does need to be fiscally overhauled... But that would just kill No Child Left Behind and Headstart programs...

Do a search on the internet for it Monet if you don't believe me. It is an op-ed written about how loan providers are fleecing the government, which is a fact.
This has been known for a long time.
I'm not saying that anyone is doing this solely to clean up the student loan business.
But I am saying that you can't just say there is good here and bad there with this issue. I don't think anyone just wakes up and says "I want to screw over some kids and make sure they get no loans for school."
Greed is the best known thing about our world. You can depend on it so much that our government set up a system of checks and balances. These banks will not only line the pockets of politicians but also push their message in the media. I'm sure you know how they operate in big pharma; this is similar.
