The Student Debt "Crisis" (Tadas with Andrew Thrasher)

“Student debt has negatively impacted many American’s lives, but it’s not a crisis that I believe warrants an expansion of the government balance sheet to the tune of multiple trillions of dollars. Like anytime the government puts their thumb on the proverbial scale, actions have repercussions and should be carefully weighted ahead of time.” Andrew Thrasher (@andrewthrasher) blogs at Thrasher Analytics is an active participant on Financial Twitter. Tadas got Andrew on the phone to talk about a recent post of his entitled “Student Loans Are Not a National Crisis” where he writes about the many issues surrounding recent talk about modifying or outright cancelling student loan debt in America.
