A six-figure job, a house in a good neighborhood, and a family; all could be theirs, but only if they got a degree. Yet with each passing year, economic reality breaks that promise for more and more young adults. Even modest homes are priced out of reach. Rising healthcare costs force many to choose between paying the rent or medical bills. And an alarming number delay parenthood or stay childless. The widespread failure to reach these milestones threatens national disaster.
One factor more than any other turned the American Dream into a nightmare: student debt. Armed with decades of credible data, bestselling author Brian Niemeier cuts through the web of rhetoric that has entangled the student loan debate. In clear, direct terms, he explains the nature of the crisis, exposes its origins in government bloat and academic greed, and prescribes a new solution that will relieve borrowers of crippling burdens without fleecing taxpayers.
Debt Reckoning is a candid, nonpartisan exposé of the American student loan system that considers all sides of this hot-button issue. Whether you’ve paid off your debts, still struggle with growing balances, or never borrowed at all, this book offers a road map to ending America’s debt nightmare and making sure it won’t happen again.
