Fat cats lobbied to create a middle man that would handle it (see loan servicers) for profit. With the added side effect of putting the youngest people in the workforce into indentured servitude.

They changed it because government mandated that schools accept loan payments. That allowed them to raise costs.

That’s a bit misleading . Tuition was never set at the national level…and lots of universities have always had tuition and fees But yes..some public universities were tuition free ( they still charged fees though) That was a decision left to the individual states and universities. The thing is…colleges are expensive to run now. There’s not a single state that could afford the costs associated with their public universities…except maybe the very small states with 1 or2 schools. Yes, the costs are out of hand…but that another matter entirely….one in which not even the universities are willing to deal with ( administrator and professor payroll costs are astronomically high…as opposed to when the universities were tuition free)…not to mention program costs, property, research, athletics teams..etc. It makes no difference if they were once free or not…we live in a very different world now.

I agree that at the VERY LEAST.. student loans should be zero % interest.

Exactly 💯

The real issue is that there's too high of a demand (a ton of college students) and not enough actual supply (colleges with space), so they had to hike the prices up because they had so many additional people that the colleges we have aren't prepared for in terms of things like dorms, teachers, and other expenses. It's very possible that there's also a mismanagement of money going on, but it's not the whole issue. If there were more colleges, like way more, then prices would probably go down.

@elainadeeter9788 Just a thought.. If students didn't have access to unlimited borrowing, would a college require a 500 dollar textbook that contains the exact same information as the text put out 10 or more years ago? The school obviously gets a kickback for using a new text every semester, with no benefit to the student. Same thing with lab fees. Grad students who make hardly anything often teach these labs, why is an extra lab fee needed? How about student fees that pay for services that many students don't use? Why is there an additional fee on top of student fees for parking? I personally feel that so many people are competing for teaching positions now, that a professor's salary could be half of what they are currently paid. These are just a few examples of a system based on students having the ability to borrow to the extreme. There is no motivation to help students, only for more people who want to get paid in the system.

@marcdunegan5749 Your beef seems to be the cost of an education. Ill tell you a secret. Not all colleges charge the same. A semester at YALE will cost 20k? A semester at ICC will cost 8k.

Conservatives rather give money to 600 wealthiest family in USA than give the money to 45 million Americans who are struggling financially to pay off student loans.

Exactly, too many people think the president is the king and controls the country.

Generally, but it's not quite that clear cut. There are several different laws that do explicitly give the executive branch discretion on "issuing, altering, or waiving" terms of federally issues loans. And if Congress has passed a law to give the executive branch that authority, then it's legal.

Well, Pelosi is a DINO whose job is to literally kill Progressive legislation before it gets to the floor. According to a law from the 60's, the Secretary of Education has control over all federal student debt and has the authority to cancel all of it

He legally can't do that, it must go through Congress. And plus Joe doesn't really care about students with debt, cause he just used their feelings for his vote. Y'know the entire point of a politician, big claims, little rewards. At least Trump got most of his promises done, and they actually helped this country. Joe did his green energy which put this country in 8 trillion dollars in debt and his newer bill is going to cost yet another 10 trillion dollars of debt in just a few years. The next president needs to stop this, no need in turning a recession into a depression.

All they hear is free money

No it’s just the president doesn’t control spending. That is how the government is set up, Everyone needs to realize how important congress is and stop voting in the same people over and over again.

They already changed the bankruptcy rules to make it easier. Some bankruptcy judges were already taking action too. The law was "if the student loan would create undue hardship after the bankruptcy, the student loans are dischargeable." A woman with over $300,000 in student loan debt (that started at roughly $80,000 before interest piled up on it) had it all discharged.

They do! As does your credit score.

​@@Blastmnyou clearly don't know how taxes work

Also 8 years of college and two schools taught me they don't care about tuition costs as much😅

​@@striderwhiston9897here's my issue with this: - Under Biden's plan those who already paid off their loans, or never took loans (Trade schools, scholarship/living cheap/working multiple jobs) will be the ones who are going to foot the bill for the choices of others unwilling to accept the reality that their expensive college experience/degrees aren't providing sufficient income to be worth the cost. Those who are smart & pay off their debts will be taxed to pay for the dumb choices of others. That's wrong. - How does this help improve the long-term issue of the cost of college? (Hint: It doesn't). - Even if this program was accepted, in 10 years another group will be deeply in debt, and they'll clamor for debt forgiveness, repeating the cycle & costing hundreds of billions more. - We are $31T+ in debt as a nation, and at risk of the dollar losing its hegemony as the world's reserve currency. Things like this (And other frivolous expenditures) are what will lead to a downfall of our reserve status & our dollar will debase in value rapidly, causing a long-term inflationary period & absolutely ruining the future prospects of our nation.

Easy, don't say you're going to cancel student loans if you can't.

He has the power. Then the supreme court decided what gave him that power didn't matter because they are partisan hacks

He knew it, but used it for mid election then he said oops guys its SCOTUS fault

It's completely unconstitutional. But it doesn't stop them telling you every time election season is in that they can do it. And college kids fall for it every time. So what is it exactly they're teaching them?

@@MofoNsh okay so? did biden like kill people for canceling shit? i mean come on we really nee to go off an 100year old shit???? like who cares, i could help millions

Yup. The only thing correct about this skit is that the initial headlines were all that mattered. More say something, do nothing politics with a side of getting to blame the other guy.

Well yeah. How else is Biden supposed to get idiot college students to vote for him?

He could have done it though, nobody seemed to care about other debt forgiveness programs and the plan is to let the banks take the profits they've already recieved and get working class Americans a helping hand in buying homes and starting businesses.

@@YourNameHere1000 not legally he couldn't, he knew it when he said it. Banks are another deal. He and many other politicians get money from them, they were definitely going to get paid.

It forced a bunch of rich people to block debt forgiveness for others, after many of them accepted it for themselves… Fairly solid move, as politics goes.

So... your opinion or the average college-goer is high, then? You think they are all thoughtful, intelligent, infallible people? Huh. 🗿

That's completely wrong and warped version of it. About 900 billion of dollars to bail out corporations Conservatives: 😊 500 billion of dollars to bail out Wall Street Conservatives: 😀 Over 400 billion of dollars to forgive PPP loans Conservatives: 😎 280 billion of dollars to forgive student loans Conservatives: YOU SOCIALIST WOKE CRT COMMUNIST FREELOADERS NEED TO PAY IT FREAKING BACK 🤬😠 When are the corporations and the people who took PPP going to pay back our taxpayers money!?!?!?! Conservatives rather give money to 600 wealthiest family in USA than give the money to 45 million Americans who are struggling financially to pay off student loans.

Finally someone who gets it I don’t care what party your in It’s common sense that if we give people government money, that’s just our money we also have to pay for my own wallet.

Not to mention if the government gives you something then they can control it. Who's to say that if they paid the debt off there wouldn't be some sort of strings to the debt relief? Nothing is free.

He should've been able to, there was absolutely no standing for these lawsuits.

​@@justsomeitweeb Except he didn't have the power or authority to, and the law his side attempted to cite had zero language saying he could (and the law wasn't even applicable to the entire citizenry). He tried to cancel debts for everyone with a law that applied only to a small subset of the population, and only allowed for modification or deferral of payments if I'm remembering correctly. Cancellation isn't a modification or deferral. Equating the two is like saying the French Nobles had their statuses "modified" during the rebellion. Presidents have and should continue to have VERY limited power. Permitting or ignoring tyrannical and/or power-grabbing behavior just because you like the individual doesn't end well :p Don't be like Dementia Joe, remember why we have separated powers.

Said no politician ever.

Simple, simple interest. And only federal (the government that is claiming to want to forgive student debt) loans compound. A private student loan through a bank typically is on a simple interest plan. So the guys who are bankrolling the debt train, are claiming they want to forgive the debt. How would they do this? By taking out a loan from the FED, increasing interest rates across all loan types. Now housing, personal and business loans would all be impacted negatively. Guess who wouldn’t worry about increased rates on loans? Large corporate conglomerates who subsidize banks, thereby having a license to print their own money. In the end, everyone gets screwed and college kids think they’re getting a big break, only to find out when they graduate, that they can’t get a loan to start a business, lack the credit to receive a personal loan and can’t sustain the necessary payments for a housing loan. But on the bright side they have a great education they can remind themselves of while sweeping floors in the communal hut.

@@codycarr4544 Just saying, if they change how the interest is charged, those with student loans (myself included) would be able to pay them off easier and have more disposable income to put back into the economy. I studied economics.

@@freedomcat no doubt about that. But it has nothing to do with helping you out is what I’m stating. It absolutely would make the most sense to set interest rates to simple interest and forgive debts that have paid up the principle.
