Student Debt is a Curse Upon America's
Future. Biden Must Wipe It Out—All Of It

Original Article

Posted By: NorthernDog, 1/25/2021 9:48:42 AM

On Wednesday, President Joe Biden's first day in office, one hundred people calling themselves the Biden Jubilee 100 declared themselves to be on a student debt strike. They represent a growing movement of debtors who are demanding that the new administration take bold action to cancel all student loans during its first one hundred days. They also represent the estimated 45 million people in this country who hold a combined $1.7 trillion in student debt. There's a broad consensus that student debt has reached crisis proportions in this country. In 2012, when Joe Biden was Vice President, student debt surpassed

Comments:

That's it - just wave a magic wand and $1,700,000,000,000 in debt disappears. Who gets left holding worthless IOU's? How about the students who faithfully repaid all their debt over the years?

Tell me where future student loans will come from. Bankers may seem greedy but they are not stupid. The problem is typically democratic in they always want something for nothing and will cheat and steal to get it.

My kids went to state schools instead of going for vanity degrees from high-priced private universities. My spouse and I paid for whatever was not covered by scholarships, which was a decent chunk of change. A lot of students take out more loans than they need and get nicer apartments and even some money to party on. Why should we have to pay for the education and spring break trips of irresponsible wastrels?

Hey, I'm fine with that. Just started taking out loans for my kid's college. $20 grand a year (well, at least he's at a good, "less-liberal" Christian college and studying Nursing, and not German Folklore and Basket Weaving). Just let me know when I can send Sleepy Creepy Crooked Uncle Joe the bill. Oops. I forgot. Everytiime there's a "free stuff" bill, there's always a line at the bottom of it. Says something like "John, you ain't getting a dime of this stuff. But you get to pay for it."

Poster #6 is right on. Both my children went to state schools in NC, and we paid their tuition without the help of loans. I was surprised to find out that both my children had taken out side loans just because they could. The colleges prey on the students as much as evil credit card companies. I just hope against hope that those with loans cancelled make the connection with their increase in taxes.

I wish we could go back to my undergraduate years. Using the inflation calculator, I paid about 840.00 per semester and more in books and lab fees, but by working part time in the semester and full time in the summer, I graduated with no debt. This was in the 1970's and the rot hadn't set in yet.

So, "the government" just pays off billions so that the slugs who didn't save or work to pay for their college get a free ride? Very bad, very destructive idea. Going to college is a bad idea for most people. Wasting lots of money to get brainwashed into hating your country. Only the few tech-career sort of degrees are worth getting. Engineering, medicine, accounting, some of the sciences.

Yep, free college. Next it's "free" housing, food, gasoline, entertainment, and peanuts. It's called "Marxism", which is modern feudalism. The king, I mean government, owns everything and decides who gets it. And the ones who get most of it always turns out to be the ones who run the government. The rest of us get peanuts.

Let's get our national debt up to $30 trillion (we're going to anyway). Just keep in mind that the main way to take excess cash out of the economy to avoid inflation is to raise interest rates. And there's a huge difference between 0% interest on $30 trillion and 20% or 30% interest on $30 trillion. If countries around the world decide to drop the US $ as their exchange currency and we get a flood of dollars coming back home, get the wheel barrel out. You'll need it to by a loaf of bread.

First, as some of us recall, it used to be understood that roughly 10 per cent of high school graduates, 12 per cent at most, have ANY business being in a real college. Not all, not most. A few. Having encountered students, and, yes, graduates of colleges who Can Not READ!, that figure makes sense. (And, yes, I realize that EEOC idiocy and the lefty loons in most HR departments require a BA to gain employment counting fuzz on caterpillars. Still holds). Like some here, I worked full time and often a 2nd job, pursuing an engineering degree part time. Took longer than 4 years, but I had to pay rent, buy food and clothes, etc. Ditto for several of my classmates.. Graduated with zero student debt. While our daughters denounced us, and ran up huge debts on nice apartments, newer cars than mine, and expensive Spring Break vacations. All on top of the tuition, fees,, books,, supplies,, computers,, etc.. Pricy,, even in SEC institutions. Now we're evil for not paying it off for them. Multiply by many.

If they do that then they will have to stop guaranteeing student loans and only people who can afford college can go. That should lower tuition as the law of supply and demand will rule. Too many students have taken out loans to get useless degrees at over price3d institutions only to find out that they qualify to be a bar tender.

So my housepainter son who did not go to college gets to pay off the student loans of people who went to college who will make tons more money than him over their lifetime (or so we are told)? Is Biden doing this so they can continue to afford to hire someone to paint their vacation homes and install their pools? Sorry, but waitresses, laborers, plumbers, construction workers, and everyone else who does not benefit from the alleged wage boost from attending college should not have to pay for the college degrees of those who hire them. They chose to take out the loans, knowing they would have the debt. They were going to college so they should have been smart enough to understand DEBT and how it would effect their financial lives after graduation.

#10, my undergrad years cost $150 tuition for three quarters (summer quarter off), $145/qtr for dorm room, and ~$200 for "meal ticket" to eat at the school cafeterias for three meals a day prepaid. So, $150 +$145 + $200 = $495 a qtr plus books, which ran about $60 a quarter. So for a qtr, about $675, for three quarters, $2025 all paid for a year. If we use a 6.7X inflation multiplier, found online, that works out to under $13.6K per year for everything that my parents paid. Unfortunately, that same state university shows currently $6400 tuition, $6,000 housing, $4600 food, plus $900 for 'books and supplies'. That totals $17,900, which is about 1/3 above the inflation adjusted equivalent of the late 60s - early 1970s number. Tuition increased by twice inflation, housing is about the same, food is just a bit above inflation. And the school adds in $1200 for "computer/cell phone", $1,100 for transportation, $900 for "clothing maintenance" and a bit over $400 for "personal". They say just a tick under $24K per year for undergrad on campus. That is nearly double the inflation adjusted number from late 60s-early 70s at the same state university. I didn't have a cell phone or computer then, my transportation was an ancient $400 VW that I maintained myself, and 'clothes maintenance' was taking dirty clothes to my grandparent's home an hour away every couple of weeks and washing it myself. Any "personal" expenses came out of my weekend/summer job at a gas station. $100K+ for four years of indoctrination on hating your country and being a bad person. Such a deal.

An IQ of 115 or more is generally considered "above average." That would be about 17% of the population. About 25-30% of the population are earning bachelor's degrees. However, a large number of the people who enter college drop out without finishing their degrees. I estimate that this to be at least 40%. (I am a retired professor and department chair, and this is based on my observation at a number of institutions, ranging from Ivy League to state colleges.) That would mean over 60% of the population are attempting a college education. Thus almost half (60%-17%=47%) of those enrolled are not "above average" and about 8% of those with "average or below" IQ succeed in earning a bachelor's degree. Much of this huge waste is supported by student loans. The colleges profit from it and, at some, there is a constant pressure on the faculty to reduce standards and produce more graduates. Why should taxpayers support this waste?

the problem is that the universities then add this relief on to the price tag they feel they can feasibly charge next time: the vaulting price tag that pays for the deans of cultural activism. That is the problem with the federal loans, all the help everybody really does want to give to bail out those who are so burdened. It does not end up with them. It is a pretext for burdening the next group ever more heavily.

The curse was letting colleges keep increasing tuition and raising the interest rates on college loans. A college loan used to have a one percent interest rate which the student didn't have to start paying until graduation. Now interest on college loans is somethin like 6 percent with tuition growing faster then Covid-19 cases. Visit any college campus, and look at all the construction taking place. It's not about education anymore. These kids and their parents are paying enormous amounts of money not to educate the students, but to send them to resorts.

A significant provision making any student loan forgiveness tax-free has been included in the $1.9 trillion federal coronavirus stimulus package that’s working its way through Congress and will likely soon be signed into law. Currently, any student loan debt canceled by the government can be considered taxable and levied at the borrower’s normal income tax rate. For example, if someone earns $50,000 a year, and was at a 22% tax rate, and received $30,000 in student loan forgiveness, they might be slapped with a $6,600 bill from the IRS. Soon, borrowers may be off the hook from these payments. What

If guilty, Chauvin would be the first former police officer to be convicted of murdering a Black man in Minnesota. The state's only ex-cop currently in prison for murdering a civilian is Mohamed Noor, who in 2019 was sentenced to 12 years in prison for fatally shooting Justine Damond after she called 911 to report a possible rape.

As we reported two days ago, Joe Biden completely made no sense when he was trying to explain the Wuhan coronavirus relief bill. It was really bad and it explains why they’re afraid to have him deliver an address to Congress or do any kind of a real solo press conference, because at this point they have to be afraid this is all going to fall apart if he does anything live and this all becomes too obvious to the American people. But there’s only so long that they can hold this off. And it’s getting worse, as video today revealed. Biden was holding an event to announce the nomination

Democrat Senator Joe Manchin (WV) appears to have started to shift his views on the filibuster with remarks that he made on two news shows on Sunday morning.The shift from Manchin comes after he has repeatedly stated that he would not vote to end the filibuster, despite pressure from the far-Left. During the interviews on Sunday, Manchin repeatedly claimed that he was not open to ending the filibuster because he did not want to strip the minority party of their power in the Senate, but signaled that he was open to changing it.Fox News host Chris Wallace asked Manchin if he would consider “reforming the filibuster” if “Republicans

In an open letter released Sunday, Pro-Life Evangelicals for Biden urged him to “honor his commitment” and include the Hyde Amendment in Democrats’ $1.9 trillion COVID-19 spending package, writing “we feel used and betrayed.” The letter states: We are very disappointed about the COVID-19 relief package’s exclusion of the Hyde Amendment, a longstanding bipartisan policy that prevents taxpayer funding for abortion.

If you had any doubts that Meghan Markle is a manipulative piece of work, her bombshell Oprah interview Sunday night dumping on the British monarchy would set you straight. Prince Harry’s American wife accused his family of hateful racism against her baby, claimed they refused to protect her and drove her to the point of suicide.She made the incendiary and implausible charge that when she was pregnant with Archie, the royal family decreed that her unborn son would be denied the title of “prince” because her mixed race meant he might have dark skin.

Pelosi’s HR1 bill a blatant power grab for Democrats 30 replies

Nancy Pelosi’s top priority is to turn America into a one-party nation ruled by Democrats. Her bill HR 1 trashes the U.S. Constitution in an attempt to rig the system and make it virtually impossible to elect a Republican president or Congress again. It’s a power grab. The bill eviscerates state voting laws and forces all the states to conform to a set of rules that includes automatic voter registration. Anyone who goes to a DMV or applies for food stamps, Medicaid or other social services, or attends a public college will be automatically enrolled to vote. Noncitizens are obligated to identify themselves and opt out,

President Biden on Monday seemed to forget Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s name at a White House event—calling the Pentagon chief “the guy who runs that outfit over there.” Biden was announcing the nomination of two female generals to lead US military combatant commands. “And I want to thank the sec—the, the, ah former general. I keep calling him general, but my, my—the guy who runs that outfit over there,” Biden said.(Snip) Earlier at the event, Biden mentioned the Defense Department leader by his name, “Secretary Austin,” while appearing to read from a teleprompter.

The Royal Family was left reeling this morning after Meghan Markle tearfully revealed that the stress of royal life made her suicidal when she was five months pregnant, claimed Archie was denied the title of prince because he is mixed-race and said Kate Middleton made her cry before she married Harry in a bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey.The couple also chose to reveal that they are having a baby girl to the tens of millions of people watching the CBS show broadcast in the US before accusing the Royal Family of racism and revealing the deep rift 'Megxit' has caused with Prince Charles and Prince William.

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.

Without question, the vast majority of Americans who support former President Donald Trump were angry and frustrated throughout 2020 passed with barely a mention of then-U.S. Attorney John Durham’s criminal investigation into the FBI’s fraudulent “Russiagate” counterterrorism operation directed at his 2016 campaign.In the weeks before the November election, word got out that then-Attorney General William Barr wasn’t going to announce any indictments or even a report on Durham’s investigation because he did not want to influence the outcome.So far, in fact, the only indictment to come out of the Durham probe is that of former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith, who essentially got a slap on the wrist

Rep. Steve Cohen vowed to renew the push to remove former FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover’s name from the bureau’s downtown Washington headquarters, according to an interview released Monday. Appearing on Yahoo! News’ Skullduggery podcast, the Tennessee Democrat said the effort is getting a fresh look after the release of a new movie highlighting the FBI’s secret program to discredit civil rights activists. The Washington Times in 2019 first reported Democrats’ bid to strip the longtime FBI director’s name from the bureau’s headquarters. Mr. Cohen said the impetus to revive the bid is the new movie, “Judas and the Black Messiah.” The movie details

“There must have been a moment, at the beginning, when we could have said –-no. But somehow we missed it.” Tom Stoppard The millions of Americans who were paying attention throughout the 2020 election campaign all became painfully aware of the fact that Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities were slipping and slipping fast. His wife, as the person closest to him, should have been the one to call the campaign quits in order to reduce stress on the man. Instead, apparently so anxious to become the First Lady by any means necessary, Mrs. Biden continued to push her failing husband’s campaign forward as if he were mentally qualified.
