Those in office right now remind me off. Brewster's Millions. He had to spend as much as he could in a certain time or it was gone.
That is a great point. Joining the military is a big sacrifice for a lot of people. Especially if the reason is to pay for college.You left out those who joined the military to help pay.
I mean, when you go to college and pay for it via student loans, the idea is for it to pay off through a lucrative job opportunities. Some people get jobs that pay well enough to pay their debts off before the interest piles up. Some people don't. Just like any other contractual agreement, it's a gamble.
The important part here is that tax payers are footing the bill. That, and it is a huge spit in the face to the people who have already paid their debt and to the parents who worked hard to avoid having their children be in the situation. Fix the interest, sure.
Hail, I do get what you're saying about the interest and what you have paid on it being more than what the forgiveness amounts to. But that's not anyone else's problem.
The problem is that half these idiots are paying $60K a year to go to a "prestigious" college and then majoring in dumb shit like history, music, fine arts, etc. that will never land them jobs that pay a decent wage. They shouldn't be approved for these ridiculous loans to begin with.I mean, when you go to college and pay for it via student loans, the idea is for it to pay off through a lucrative job opportunities.

Also, what about the millions of people who didn't go to college because they weren't willing to take on a loan they were uncertain they'd be able to pay back?
As great as this is for some, it is a huge fvck you to others.
Hail, I respect you. I think we are more in agreement than it seems. But people can make paying off their debt a priority when they have an income that aligns with their college education. I do not believe that people are going to avoid those occupations because of student loans. So I think the hypothetical scenario you present isn't relevant. Especially seeing how it hasn't been an issue to this point. Again, why is it the tax payer's problem that you accepted the terms of a loan?Again, I’ve paid $15,000 in interest. The $10,000 in “relief” I’m getting is just getting some of that back.
Re: “That’s not anyone else’s problem”.
It would be everyone’s problem if people with student loan debt had avoided debt by going into non-college professions. You’d lose well over half of the Heath Care work force that is already decimated. That sounds good to you?
And we can agree with this. But we won't agree with what is happening here.Join the military…. Get a free education.
Borrow money to go to college? Pay it back interest free or with really low rates.
Both things can still happen.
That's great because they consider 9mm to be assault weapons.
It stinks we have to put an end to that shit of stealing elections. Should have never been a thought.That's great because they consider 9mm to be assault weapons.
It's hilarious that at the end he says they will assure that no one will steal an election again. Haha

That's not what I am screaming. I think it's pretty clear what I am screaming. But to each his own.But you and half the population right now keep screaming “you shouldn’t have gone to college then!”
That’s a fun talking point but not at all realistic. You should be begging people to go to nursing school right now, not the contrary.
Thoughts on this? $130,000 paid and still has higher balance than what she borrowed.
This is GOLD.... especially the part about protecting voting rights and ensuring no one will ever be able to steal an election again. Bold of him to talk about himself like that. 😂
That's not what I am screaming. I think it's pretty clear what I am screaming. But to each his own.
Lol. My anger is 100% aimed at the government. I am not judging anyone who took the loans and are benefiting from this socialistic forgiveness program. I am simply saying that tax payers should not be paying for loans and the terms for them that they didn't accept. AGAIN, let's focus on the interest rates and not forgiving the loans. Something you yourself have said.Sure it is. You keep saying the 6.50% interest rates are no problem but their own.
Even though they NEEDED those loans to go to nursing school and you NEEDED then to go to nursing school.
Your anger is aimed at the wrong people. You should be mad at the government for ever slapping borrowers with those interest rates to begin with, not at borrowers for getting some relief from it.
I have a problem with little joey, who never went to college and works at Walmart, having a single cent taken out of his paycheck to go towards that $10,000. Yes.This person paid $130,000 in interest to the government and you have a problem with them getting $10,000 of it back.

In 5-10 years, under this administration or the like, we will be nothing more than northern Mexico.What do we do in 5-10 years? Are those before and after just out?
There's no reform. Nothing like state universities being free or anything of the sort. This is just going to happen again but with larger numbers.

Have the student loans been accruing interest this entire time of the pandemic?And let’s start that by giving people some relief on the ridiculous amount of interest payments already made.
Have the student loans been accruing interest this entire time of the pandemic?
Who pays for the 10k? I'm guessing either little joey or the person who already paid a great deal in interest.So you’re okay with the person who paid $130,000 in interest getting $10,000 back from that?
As long as the everyday tax payer doesn't pay a single cent. Yes.So you’re okay with the person who paid $130,000 in interest getting $10,000 back from that?

Doesn't mean that I have to agree with it. Sorry, not sorry.
Anyways, it's been weird hail. I feel like I have been arguing with ticket. Off to bed.
I feel like I’ve been arguing with Afamu.
The rates are not the fault of taxpayers. Glad I get to pay extra now for people to go to school for mainly useless degrees. I paid off my debts, now I get to do the same for everyone else who can’t honor what they committed to!
FJB
I don’t give a crap about Erin and neither do the other people who paid off what they agreed to pay off.Taxpayers benefited from Erin paying $130,000 in student loan interest the past 10 years. God forbid she gets $10,000 of that back.
