Inez Stepman joins the podcast to discuss this month’s policy focus– student loan forgiveness. As the cries for “free college” have gotten louder, and with a President who is pushing for a student loan relief plan, the question is — does this really help students, especially those that need financial assistance the most? Inez explains why loan forgiveness is costly, unfair, and regressive.
