To this day, countless college graduates are still paying back their school loans from years ago with no foreseen future of the bills ever ending. To many, college is believed to be the best time of your life, where young adults get to be who they are with no adults to tell them what to do. However, years later when the bills start to seem like they are getting too much, it is probably because they are. School loans are ridiculous for the small snippet of what people actually learned and leave the universities with. All high school graduates in the United States should be given an opportunity for a tuition-free college education, following the model used in European countries.
Right now in the United Sates the average student loan is about $30,000 dollars. This number multiplied by the amount of college students (approximately 18 million) leaves the national student loans debt at almost over 500 billion dollars (Financial Times). At this rate, many students start to struggle to repay loans because they do not have adequate jobs in their field of study. This is caused by the economy not having enough jobs to provide recent graduates with and if they even do it does not do very much financially for the student.
If a student were to be able to attend college tuition free, it would allow students who were not able to attend college to enroll, help the lower class receive better jobs with new degrees, and push the economy into a better direction with more jobs and workers all within the United States. College tuition for all high school graduates is an important part of the ongoing economy. If tuition were to be covered many more jobs would become available, help boost the economy and allow students the opportunity to receive post high school education.
If college tuition gets any higher many will not receive post high school education which leads to many unemployed people
