“You can’t get out of student loans. “
Bernie and Hillary are both running on getting out of student loans.
Yeah...and the same ilk who talked about free health care too. And you could keep your doctor.
The reason federally-backed student loans can’t be discharged in bankruptcy was prior abuse. Lawyers and doctors were finishing school, then declaring bankruptcy to wipe the slate clean. Taxpayers got to pick up the tab, until Congress put a stop to it.
The only student reform we need is to limit the total loan to a balance that can be paid in 10-15 years, at the prevailing wage/salary earned by a new graduate. If there is no market for a particular degree, then no student loan at all.
