[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just by looking at the theme of the tweets today, I have a hunch it’s going to be an executive order focusing on undergraduate debt — likely means tested. Plus you have to factor in Dr Jill Biden being a two year community college professor, where inner city and working class students often have $10k to $20k in federal loans, and over half never finished their program. And undergraduate caps are low, I think $30k max lifetime, not the obscene six-figure sums you see with master’s and professional degrees.[/quote] I’ve never understood carving out undergraduate loans from graduate loans for forgiveness when there are fairly moderate income limits that would apply. [/quote] Because 18 year olds with GEDs and legitimately worthless high school diplomas are preyed on vs. 22+ year olds credentialed adults with bachelor's degrees should know better? And the federal loan caps are $30k for the former, while the latter can take out 10x+ that amount? And the latter have solid earning power with just their bachelor's. And over half of the former never finished their program. And 95+% of the former were dirt poor to middle class. Rich don't take out federal loans for undergrad. Just my two cents.[/quote]
