We elected one party that wants to ignore the problem and another party that wants to print money in a vain effort to make it go away.  The Democrats made their play.  Maybe the Republicans need to propose the measures that will lower tuition and hold fraudulent academic advisors accountable.

This time? Lol. It will never be on the menu. Too many lobbyists and 500k speaking fees for politicians. 

The right move would be for employers to stop prioritizing degrees for gainful employment in industries where a degree doesn't make a difference.

Fair enough.
Say it's time to hire an entry level office position that only requires a little science or math knowledge.
Your applicants are an 18 year old with a high school diploma, and a 22 year old who got himself into a bit of debt but has a college degree in marketing. It's not really a marketing position.
Which one are you hiring?
Are you in favor of punishing the employer who will never pick the 18 year old?
