Two problems: the first is the exploitation of the students requiring them to pay for education that they don’t need, and the second is the predatory practices of the banks providing loans. Another factor is the social pressure on students to get a degree rather than to enter a trade.

What loro1rojo said. BTW, before student loans were given out by the federal government one had to go to a private bank to get a student loan just as one does for a car loan, house loan, business loan or unsecured loan. There is no way one could walk into a private bank and say my family has no means, I didn't do well enough in high school to get a scholarship, but I want a $200 thousand loan to go to Harvard for women's or ethnic studies. They would look at what a major paid and say no way. The federal government has no problem handing out huge loans for worthless majors. And too few are asking the central question here: Why is it so expensive to get a degree now? The answer is unionization of school employees, and that is routed in jealousy. The philosophy department people would look on envy at how much an engineering teacher made but it takes more to lure an engineer into teaching than it does a philosophy major into teaching. When was the last time you saw a private sector job posting saying, for example, philosophy major wanted at Ford Motor Company? It doesn't happen. Then all the grounds and building keepers and office help are all unionized and that's why education is so expensive.

Children have been given 12 years of taxpayer funded since the law was passed in 1939. When these children become adults at 18 they are expected to make adult decisions for themselves. If they decide that they are worth investing in themselves then they need to decide how to pay for that adult decision. These people that took out a loan need to be held accountable for their decision and not pass off their obligations onto others. If they can't be responsible for the commitment that they made, are they really adult enough for higher learning?

Again, perhaps this person took out a neg-am loan, which I'm surprised such a loan would be made available to students.

How about working on all of the other factors that will assist people in making sure they can afford to pay down their debt. If anything, a student loan assures you a good start in establishing your credit. The one thing I did take advantage of...continuing to pay my same minimum payment during the break we were given not to pay the loan - and it all went to the principle.

Affecting low income?? Last time I checked, you don’t have to be upper class to work your way through school.

So only the wealthy should go to school???

The young man says it isnt fair.Would it be fair to the average taxpayer paying off your loan, then if you get the good job.You start making way more than all those that paid your loan off.

These people took out these loans before the carrot on a stick was presented to them. They confess themselves that they took the loans with the expectations that they would pay it back. It's like working for a company that offers a bonus at the end of a period and then the last minute claim you didn't make the quota. You just have to deal with it.

I didn't sign your student loan papers. Why should I pay for a loan I didn't request? Don't get an education you CANNOT afford! Attend a 2-year college to get your general education units/credits out of the way, then attend a school you want to attend. There are many scholarships and grants available for students. I went to college DEBT FREE because I paid as I went.

Ask a parent who paid for their children's education ! We should pay again for students who failed . Obama said all students should go to college even if they are not qualified ? Did these people even go to school ?

40% inflation has changed our lives..

If they have to pay their own debts, can they still be victims?

Never had the legal authority to do so.

I believe that they SHOULD forgive student loan debt... if the student's degree/credentials are nullified. Why should you get to keep a degree that you refuse to pay for. If you go to a store and buy a jacket, you dont just get to return it, get your money back and keep the jacket. You have to PHYSICALLY return it to the store. Well... if you want your debt forgiven, then maybe you shouldn't have the degree. The agreement was for a bank to loan you money so that you can get an education. Fine, you walk away with the education, but you dont get your credentials. How about that?

They're slapping your hands away from the taxpayer.

Those interviewed college students, did any have a major in other than, say, ethnic studies, sociology, anthropology or political science? Probably not. So these students, and many, many like them, wasted their time and MONEY on majors that will lead to jobs that are non-productive, low paying and worthless, that is, if they could even find a job that's "commensurate" with their talent and self-importance.😮 So, now they want politicians and bureaucrats, aka, "the government," to forgive the loans they took to pay for their poor decisions. Do I have this right? If so, then I must agree with the SCOTUS decision to deny these students "college loan forgiveness."

"PPP loans aimed to keep small businesses afloat during #COVID19, saving jobs. Forgiveness wasn't automatic, but based on meeting criteria like using 60% for payroll. Despite some fraud, most used funds properly. They weren't handouts, but support during an unprecedented crisis."

Not to mention, they were given out because the government forced small businesses to close down.

Maybe the diploma mills should give the money back.

Hey ,Tyler boo hoo hoo. You signed on the dotted line and now you're crying about what is going to happen to your life plans. I'll tell you. You are going to have to pay the loan. So, buckle up and stop whining.

The government should forgive student loan debt, then mortgage debt, then auto loan debt, then credit card debt, then any and all debt. That seems only fair.

I have complex PTSD, ADHD, I have sustained brain damage, it limits what I can do, I have a bad memory, I have issues where I lose time hours out of the day I find myself in places that I don't know how I got there, there is nothing I can do about it. My doctor wanted me to apply for disability, because he thinks I am that bad off. I don't qualify for government aid, so I don't feel bad for these people who have to pay back their own loans. I have to work, I have to provide for myself. I don't have the ability to deal with high pressure,nor do I have the ability to retain information immediately, it takes me about 6 months of doing something repeatedly in order for me to retain information. I have to work low skill jobs to survive ,so I have no problems with these people having to repay their own responsibilities.

I have double complex PTSD from almost. having to pay off their student loans.

So those Republicans feel that you should pay back your loans. What give Republicans the right to think people should be responsible for their own Debt.

If it’s Congress’s problem why isn’t Joe talking to them about it?

"and they want to move into adulthood" by defaulting on a the very 1st loan they ever get?

I don’t want to pay your bills. Also, did you really think the democrats were going to deliver on this promise? They have been making this promise for years and nothing ever happens. Keep voting for them though.

But you were all just thrilled that Republicans gave the most wealthy in this country HUGE tax breaks?

"They only care about the high tax brackets" says the man in college. I bet if you asked him what percent of kids go to college he'd greatly overestimate it.

NOT OUR LOAN! how come their so called higher education wont pay for their loans'

Whats all the crying about? Own your isht.

So I'm supposed to dig deep in my pocket, so others can have a home, family, kids, cars..... Step 1. GROW UP! It's your debt. Not the American taxpayers. Didn't they teach you that in college?

I've spent the last 3 years during this pause and zero intrest paying down a significant amount of my student loans. I am now ahead of the 2028 payoff date & saved lots of interest! Even though I fell with in the Biden qualification to cover my loans.

Forget your student debt relief. I am not responsible for your debt. If you can't afford to pay off your loan and STILL make more money after your education. You failed.

YOU borrowed the money. WHY should you not be responsible ?

Higher education VICTIMS --- so sad too bad.

I hope you 26 million that wanted to put your debt on Working Taxpayers went out and bought new cars houses and boats.
