The government taking credit risk into account would have such regressive results it would be hilarious. The cost of college would dramatically plunge for kids from rich families taking CS and finance classes and skyrocket for everyone else

That would be great if cost of college plunged for CS and finance students.

You're saying this as if it hasn't happened already.

Less money for borrowing means students can only afford lower tuitions and colleges are incentivized to efficiently use your money.
