Getty Images/CNET Reports of the IRS Direct File's death may not have been exaggerated after all. The agency's free program for filing electronic tax returns may be the latest victim of the Trump administration's DOGE efficiency team, according to reporting by the Associated Press. It cited two anonymous sources familiar with the decision who said staff were told to stop working on the program for the 2026 tax filing season.

Jaison R. Abel and Richard Deitz In our last post, we showed that the economic benefits of a college degree still far outweigh the costs for the typical graduate, with a healthy and consistent return of 12 to 13 percent over the past few decades. But there are many circumstances under which college graduates do not earn such a high return. Some colleges are much more expensive than average, and financial aid is not guaranteed no matter which college a student attends. In addition, the potential
