Read the following context and choose the best option to answer the question.
Context: 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 .
Question: What is a possible reason that the Republicans wanted to eliminate grants for schooling ?
Options:

 - Because they believe that the government should n't help people out anymore than is absolutely necessary
 - They do n't believe in secondary education as a whole and would like to do with college
