<human>: Hello Redditors, first time poster here. 
This evening, Rick Santorum came to my school. As it would turn out, I was the actual only current student at my small conservative college in Iowa to get the microphone. Trust me, I had both Rick AND the audience working against me here. 

My first question for Rick was simple: What would his administration do to help alleviate the rising cost of tuition and help graduates who enter the job market with high amounts of debt?

His first question for me was "Well, do you know all of the factors leading to the higher cost of education?" Unfortunately, I admit ignorance. Basically his explanation was that the government assists too much with the cost of college for students via pell grants and other subsidies that drive the cost of college up. 
I would like assistance finding data on this matter, because somehow his claims do not add up. 

However, my second question pertains to his religiousness and his politics. I cited the book of Amos as an example of God's intolerance for societies that abuse the poor. I also cited the fact that Amos (and God) would be disgusted with the fact that we have 45,000 Americans dying in our streets annually, and when he asked me where I got my information, I froze. Fortunately, my friend and I were able to look it up and discover that it came from a CNN report, and I was able to tell Rick that on his way out. His response: "Wow, I didn't know CNN did reports like that."

After the Q and A was wrapped up, two reporters, One from CNN and one from MSNBC (actually works in New York on the Rachel Maddow show) wanted me to get back to them with more information to support the questions I had for Rick.
Any sort of help and support is welcome!
Thanks!

Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?
