[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is not right that some kids get to go to a 4 year school and live on-campus with now loans like a spoiled rotten brat while other kids have to commute living at home and pay their own tuition on a monthly payment plan. [/quote] My kids' friends have a beach house. Its not right that those kids get to go there on school breaks FOR FREE and my kids are stuck at home doing nothing. /s[/quote] And there are tons more kids who have it much worse than your kids stuck at home. Let's just say that any college is out of reach for them.[/quote] our economy depends on having labor not dependent upon a college degree. not everyone can or should go to college. people don't want to acknowledge that, but it's true. now there are millions of people who did get to go to college and earn their degrees (which lenders can't "repossess") but they want taxpayers to take on that burden and pay the tab? So others who either paid their own way or chose not to go to college are supposed to take on that debt? Nope. I'm a Dem, but based on Biden's performance thus far together with the whininess of people advocating for government giveaway policies like this, I would count on the house going to the GOP next year and then all this talk about loan forgiveness will be even further removed from reality. [/quote] The house is already going to the GOP because of perceived "woke policies" and attacks on education. Student loan forgiveness is an attempt to obtain a voting base based on economics rather than racial grievance etc. Even if forgiveness doesn't happen, the payments are going to remain at zero. You're not going to get Millennials and GenZ out to vote for Democrats when student loans come due before/during midterms. It's like a farm subsidy at this point where lots of people don't like it but it's too much trouble to get rid of it.[/quote] Cool. Well we are rich but I will definitely be having my kids take out the full stafford allotment since Uncle Sam will be paying the tab forever according to you. [/quote] +1 DS is a sophomore in college, and we would never have qualified for subsidized stafford loans, only unsub, but DS's loans have been interest-free anyway in the years since he took them out due to the pause. Great investment. [/quote]
