its not banks anymore, it's fed gov, they took it over for obamacare

part of obamacare was the gov took over student loans, so it's not banks putting that anchor around kids necks, it's the gov, and it gives them the ability to hold debt relief out as a bribe to get votes. It is corrupt at its core, not to mention, it has never produced close to the revenue for the gov, even before the payment pauses and giveaways, so now the gov is also shelling out more money that was supposed to be covered for healthcare. I guess after it got passed no one read it

EDGEMAN • 09/29/22 06:56 PM ET
you do realize colleges are starting to
VaTechie • 09/29/22 08:27 PM ET
Maybe, but I think they will just kill the programs.
RJHokie • 09/29/22 07:52 PM ET
If they are crap degrees, should they even exist?
EDGEMAN • 09/29/22 07:59 PM ET
The degrees exist because people have interests in the subject matter.
RJHokie • 09/29/22 08:19 PM ET
In that case, the student and or their parents can pay for that degree.
EDGEMAN • 09/29/22 08:27 PM ET
Unfortunately it doesn’t work that way.
RJHokie • 09/29/22 08:34 PM ET

Vienna_Hokie • 09/29/22 04:09 PM ET
the people loaning them the money don't care any - the school or the banks
bigbadbird • 09/29/22 04:25 PM ET

It hit a snag the day it was suggested from both sides
TheNuke • 09/29/22 02:25 PM ET
It will get happen, then get litigated for years. By then it's too late.
HokieGator • 09/29/22 03:56 PM ET
Well it got the press he wanted.
Vtskier1 • 09/29/22 02:39 PM ET
the cost is the problem - and banks don't apply normal rules of loans
bigbadbird • 09/29/22 03:10 PM ET
