You can find funded master’s programs - I was offered full funding packages by two top-40 public universities and ended up accepting a research assistantship at Indiana University.

It’s not as lucrative a package as a Ph.D student would get in my field, but 100% tuition remission, an $11,000 stipend and health insurance sure beats a kick in the pants. I will probably have to borrow a little bit to live more comfortably, but with summer job earnings, that amount should be minimal.
