News mash-up show with Paul Fischer. "Before heading out for the August recess, the House gave final congressional approval to legislation on student loan interest rates. ( The rates doubled on July 1st, when Congress missed the deadline to keep them low). So what does the new legislation do? Maybe not what you thought it does." From Pacifica Radio.
