The rising cost could be attributed to large amounts of financial aid offered to students as well as easy access to student loans, experts told the Daily Caller News Foundation.  “I don’t think any Ivy League school at this point still has loans for undergrads, but they do have kids with Pell Grants,” Neal McCluskey, director of the Cato Institute’s Center for Educational Freedom, told the DCNF. “But those loans, in particular, enable people, students, to pay high sticker prices in part because that money doesn’t come from…

If a consumer ban does happen, other social media platforms have comparable offerings that would make transitioning from TikTok feasible, says Evan Horowitz, CEO and cofounder of Movers+Shakers.
