As a result, debt levels for USA tertiary students have grown enormously and government risk (through exposure to bad loans) has risen. There has also been a proliferation of junk degrees and fraudulent providers. Britain started down a similar route shortly after the election of its current government, in spite of opponents pointing to the clear warnings offered by the USA experiences. Signs of the same consequences are emerging now in the UK. Given the direction being driven by Australia's current government, the triumph of ideology over evidence seems to be complete.
