I paid back every cent of my student loans back in the early 90's and I paid for every cent of my son's college educations.

You can't retire bdcause of your student loans? Exactly how is that MY problem you entitled little pricks! Pay back what you owe!! The rest of us did and we're retiring so F.U.!!!

The “universties” that harvested dumb 18 year-olds for their student loan dollars are the villains of the story.

The solution is to take the money out of the endowments of the “universities” that exploited them.

Just goes to show 50% of Americans have below average IQ’s. Not a single one of them belong in college.

Student loans should only be offered for programs of study that are likely to put the student in a position to repay the loan.

Biden is such a despicalbe person. He KNEW that the courts would block it, he just wanted the votes.

This is the same “ethical” President who showered with his teenage daughter and scared her to death.

What puzzles me about this is that the average car loan is well north of $20,000 and the average mortgage is well over $200,000.

Yet the vast majority of Americans, many of whom have never been to college, dutifully pay those down with no real complaint. For if they didn't, their cars and their homes would be unceremoniously repossessed.

These deadbeats need to shut up and pay down their loans like everybody else.

Gosh, I basically retired and went PRN at my job and work Saturdays and Sundays only. I received an email from my supervisor asking if I could work Fridays again because they really needed me and my experience. How much am I worth now??? Thank God I owe nothing except my monthly utility bills and food.

Taking a pic of a note on the back of semi-transparent deposit slip? Not smart.

Not ONE of these folks understood nor understand now they were suckerfished into voting for Biden and other D’s believing that student loan relief had the slightest chance of passing Constitutional scrutiny. This was a very cruel, cynical move by Biden & co to snag votes from the naive. Unfortunately, their very expensive educations did not inform them of that particular dynamic.

And while we’re at it, the very idea that $10K or $20K is the difference between being able to retire or not is another piece of fine ignorance.

These “educated” imbeciles are in exactly the same boat they were before the Biden giveaway/vote grab was shot down.

The same calculations before they signed for their loan would exact the same results they are just now waking up to.

And at almost 62, I’m starting my 3rd career path....never too old, but apparently many are mentally too young. Perpetually.

My daughter didn’t ask her neighbors of any other taxpayer to pay for her student loan. She paid back every penny of it.

Why should anybody be FORCED to pay for other people’s loans?

People with credit card debt should be allowed to ask the federal government to pay off their debts. It amounts to the same thing as student loans. Many of those people with credit card debt did not go to college and don’t have better jobs or careers than those students who used student loans to get better paying jobs or careers.

If student loans are paid by the taxpayers, why would any future students with student loans not also expect the same thing?

Then perhaps you slackers and deadbeats need to think about how you can adjust your life-style to repay those loans that you took out instead of being a further drain on the futures of our grandchildren. My wife and I aren’t rich by any means, but we don’t look to anybody but ourselves to put our kids through college and provide for our own futures. I have no patience for parasites.

I have heard dozens of stories about people taking their student loan money and going on vacations to Aruba, buying bling, essentially squandering it away.

As a lender, why would I loan tuition money to someone enrolled in "gender studies", "negro studies", or any other "studies" program?

These people in this sorry excuse of a news story truly epitomize the term “unless eater” I’m sorry to say.

Maybe the WEF is on to something.
