Brian Boucher reports on the proposed American Arts Revival Act, which "would assist arts workers nationwide in paying down their student debt." More from Jillian Steinhauer here. Paddy Johnson says: "I see no chance of this ever passing."
UPDATE: Michael Rushton tweets: "This is (1) inequitable across students carrying debt, and (2) creates all manner of moral hazard problems. If the state wants to support artists and arts presenters, do so directly. Stay away from narrowly focused, discriminatory, gimmicky aid."
