    Thank God. Now maybe the little liberal shits will understand what it is like to make horrible financial decisions and be responsible for those decisions.

    This, stop the government backing these loans 100% for colleges. Let them or private entities fund these loans and you'll see the (fill in the blank) studies evaporate.

    College used to be affordable. Even when I went, I think it was under $16,000 for five years of c.c. and UW. My parents paid for a lot of it, I paid for about three percent, and a job paid for some of it.

    The loan thing is all a scam to enrich people.

    Poor innocent stupid girls who couldn't do a cost benefit analysis and didn't understand that the government cheese had to be paid back. If only someone as financially astute as a real man like Buck could have mansplained to them.

    Women could be most affected by Trump’s penalties for overdue student loans

    Women are overrepresented on college campuses and hold nearly two-thirds of the nation's $1.6 trillion student debt. 

    For the first time in five years, student loan borrowers whose payments are long overdue could face stiff consequences, and that puts a disproportionate number of women at further financial risk. The Department of Education announced Monday that, starting on May 5, its Office of Federal Student Aid (FSA) will start collecting student debt in default. Delinquent borrowers could have their wages garnished as early as the summer…

    If you borrowed the money pay it back. Student loan problem solved.

    It's rare I disagree with you but this is one of those times. Why should the taxpayers bail out people with their student loans? Why not have taxpayers pay off people's mortgages or car loans?

    Totally get that and agree with it. I’m only offering a bailout with huge systemic reform which will prevent this from happening again while crushing the colleges and financially forcing them to get back to their core mission. Reality is we aren’t going to see the money from the existing loans anytime soon. There’s a ton of money to be saved over time with a good deal made that could offset some kind of bailout.

    Our biggest national problem is that our huge dysfunctional problems can't be fixed in a couple of years. Especially when our enemies like China think they are just an election away from having the dems back in power or having veto power from continuing the reforms. We have sort of conservatives like Goduckies already giving up on tariffs and doing anything to restore fair trade and secure key supply chain things like pharmaceuticals, access to key metals and minerals and moving manufacturing out of China to other Southeast counties or Latin America for say shoe and clothing imports. We have a large debt forgiveness and adopt some reforms on student debt and on day one of a dem presidency it is business back to usual. That's one of the problems with building a lot of very expensive oil and gas infrastructure because again we are one election away from having it all taken away again.

    Like an immigration deal the first step is stopping the loans. Then something that has the colleges paying the most could be discussed

    A 17 year old having been told their life depends on college makes a really stupid decision.

    They should stick to changing their gender at that age
