Yes, and increase government funding so every student receives a free college education

MMT argues that the government can create money to fund these programs without causing inflation, as long as there are available resources and labor.

Agree

Yes

Therefore, MMT might somewhat agree with increasing taxes for the rich to reduce interest rates for student loans, but it is not the main focus of the theory.

Very strongly disagree

No, and transition all current government student loans into privately managed accounts

Transitioning government student loans into privately managed accounts goes against the core principles of MMT, which emphasizes the role of the government in providing public goods and services.
