We need a student loan forgiveness program. It is long overdue.

I'll just take it being tax deductible like tuition

Also, getting married screws you with the $2,500 interest deductions.

And stop federally subsidized student loans. Any chucklefrick with absolutely no credit history, assets, or income can borrow money for the purpose of college. College administrations fricking love this free money and it is the reason for the absurd inflation in attendance cost.

Say what???

So now the government is supposed to give free, no consequence money to kids going to college to spend on beer, cocaine, and whores?

I can tell you right now that most of the money that I borrowed (and have since paid back every penny) went to pay for my apartment, but there was a nice chunk every semester that we got drunk on and took to the Belle.

No students need to honor their commitments and pay back the loan.

Student loans are set up for failure. Here let's lend money to someone with no credit history, no work history and no idea what they will end up doing if they actually graduate.

Then the loan is set up without having to make payments for years, but its accruing interest daily.

Why not make someone actually qualify and repay the debt immediately. I can't buy a car, house or get a credit card without expecting to start paying it back.

Let's face it, college isn't for everyone. And as grandpa used to say... world needs ditch diggers too.

Would love it, but it's simply not realistic and sets a bad precedent for future programs of similar type.

No, people need to pay their @#@#$@#$# debts. Can't believe anyone is so worthless as to suggest or believe something like this.

We need to limit college loan programs to those likely to be able to repay the loans....

For undergrad, it's called the GI Bill. For many professional degrees, there are forgiveness programs if you work in an underserved area for a certain number of years after school.

frick off.

We need a program to educate kids on investments before they get to college and take out loans they can't pay back for worthless degrees.
