The increasing expensive cost of education in America is forcing learners into decades of debt, and legitimizing the existence of for-profit schools. According to Diana Edwards, as of the year 2015, an average student at the college level owed over $35,000 in student loans which took them more than 17 years to clear (https://www.jamesmadison.org/library/doclib/Journal-Winter-2016-How-We-Can-Solve-the-Student-Loan-Debt-Crisis1.pdf ).

However, two major solutions that have been proposed before includes scrapping off tuition fees and prioritization of the basic needs.
