Sen. Elizabeth Warren wants student loans to get Fed discount rate

`` Students taking out government loans to help pay for college should pay the same rock-bottom interest rate that the Federal Reserve charges big banks, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) proposed Wednesday.'.. The Bank on Students Loan Fairness Act would direct the Fed to make money available to the Education Department for one year at the discount window rate to fund federally subsidized Stafford student loans.'' -- Unfortunately this would just blow the "higher education bubble" even larger, but, we suppose its only fair!
