College is out of reach for many Americans simply because it costs too much to go. The way to make college affordable again is pretty simple: Have the government pay for it again.

Calling because I want to ask just about the future of higher education affordability. I'm not sure if people are aware but college enrollment is significantly down. And part of it is because there are just fewer students but part of it is because the students there are making a cost-benefit decision not to go. And maybe I'm wrong but this to me is of economic consequence so I'm just wondering your thoughts on if that will initiate or instigate or inspire any sort of additional legislation on making higher education more affordable. I mean what needs to be done? I appreciate the call. what needs to happen and you can look at this in the data. We need to fund state schools. We need to support them more. because they have sent they have basically pushed the cost of college onto the students relative to where we were 20 years ago 30 years ago 40 years ago. and we need to fund those state colleges. and I think the only way that can happen ultimately is from the federal government. and I think once you make them basically a free option or effectively free option in every state you'll see private colleges dropping their tuition too. because I think a lot of people would opt for state universities. I mean broadly speaking, state universities can be exceptional and the more students it attracts, the more students who would otherwise go to a more prestigious school. but now because the prices are you know or there's no cost or low cost and I think it will create downward pressure on the rest of college tuition. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOWMcBVuHFs

We live in a very disposable society. When something breaks we tend to just buy a new one. Often it's easier to buy something new than to pay for a costly repair. But this wasn't always the case. Over the past few decades, there has been a slow erosion of the right to repair the items you buy. Louis Rossmann wants to change that. He's leading the charge to restore the right to repair in the country.

Sam Seder: Louis Rossman is the owner and founder of the Rossmann repair group. he's got a youtube channel and it focuses on being able to fix your stuff. which the right to repair has become has sort of re-entered into the the sort of the news in the wake of Joe Biden's executive order that he was going to ramp up antitrust things. Louis, welcome to the program. I'm here with Emma Vigeland.
Louis Rossmann: thank you so much for having me on. I really appreciate you taking the time Sam: the first thing I want to say do you accept interns because I want to apply. I've I did a little bit of this back in the day with vcrs and and and i occasionally have rehabbed a lot of our computers in this in our office. and I think it's fantastic that you're sort of helping people to empower people to do this.
Louis: Well, we actually started offering workshops in the store. and I'm trying to do them about two or three times a week. where people can come by for two to three hours using the soldering equipment, the microscope and the hot air station. and they can bring in anything they want to fix. so last week we had someone show up with a broken Xbox, a cb radio and a Garmin gps. some of it we fixed. some of it we didn't. but I like having people come in on their own time to just be able to use the lab equipment if they don't have any at home. and yeah we are actually it's not an internship but we are actually allowing people to just come in from time to time with stuff that doesn't work a lot of times. and be able to use the equi
