Back when I was in college ( 10 years ago ) the Republican led congress tried to push through a bill to * eliminate * grants for college kids . This was at a time when the budget was balanced and my costs were going up 13 % per year , while the grant money was * flat * year over year , in other words , I was going into debt 13 % more per year as it was . Then , the Republicans tried to eliminate my grant money .
What is a possible reason that the Republicans wanted to eliminate grants for schooling ?
