The Student Debt Dilemma With Constantine Yannelis

Published: Sept. 1, 2022, 11 a.m.

b'We\\u2019re taking a week off here at the end of the summer, but with Biden\\u2019s recent student loan announcement we couldn\\u2019t help but think back to our episode about student debt with Constatine Yannelis. \\n\\nBefore he was elected, Biden had promised to remove 50K in debt from borrowers. His recent announcement doesn\\u2019t quite match that promise, but this episode still contains an incredible amount of vital information about our student debt problem, who really benefits from forgiveness, and what are real solutions for the future.\\n\\nWe hope you enjoy, and thanks for listening. Your support is crucial to keeping our show going, so please tell your friends and family to give us a listen and a review. We\\u2019ll be back in two weeks with a brand new episode of Capitalisn\\u2019t.\\n\\nAs Bethany mentions during the episode, if you are a journalist with some years of media experience and have an interest in deepening your knowledge and understanding of the many issues we cover on this podcast, you are encouraged to apply for the Stigler Center Journalists in Residence program, which offers training in business fundamentals at Chicago Booth.
