Mike Rowe on Taxpayer-Supported College Loans

Views: 884
"If we are lending money that ostensibly we don't have to kids who have no hope of making it back in order to train them for jobs that clearly don't exist, I might suggest that we've gone around the bend a little bit," says TV personality Mike Rowe, best known as the longtime host of Discovery Channel's Dirty Jobs, in this ReasonTV interview excerpt. "I get a little curious about it when it gets to a trillion dollars."

You can watch ReasonTV's full in-depth interview with Mike Rowe here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzKzu86Agg0

Approximately 1 minute. Hosted by Reason's Nick Gillespie. Cameras by Meredith Bragg and Joshua Swain. Edited by Bragg.

Editor's Note: According to the Department of Labor, college tuition costs have increased over 500 percent in nominal dollars since 1985, not 500 percent the rate of inflation. Read more about the increase here: http://reason.com/archives/2013/09/05/why-students-and-barack-obama-should-shu
