How do you know Obama is lying?
Yeah...good luck if you’re a conservative college...your students won’t get the time of day from this crowd...
The government taking over a business operation is going to save money?
On what other planet did that happen?
Because the price of tuition isn’t high enough yet.
I hope Sallie Mae falls apart. It’s a corrupt, criminal organization. They routinely lie and tack on fees and charges. It took me 4 months to prevail in a dispute over $500 they were trying to fleece from me.
Yep, been waiting for this massive gubment redistribution of income/wealth ponzie scheme. Next is credit card debt. All placed on the back of taxpayers for generations to come.
Elections have consequences. Back in the USS, back in the USS, back in the USSR.
How about an investigation into college price gouging brought on as a direct result of easy student loans? (sound of crickets chirping....tumble weed blows down the street)
Obama and the Dems are doing to college education what they did to housing.
Subsidize it by giving below market loans + give the colleges govt. grants + then the colleges get free money from alumni =
???
Answer? Inflated college tuitions, massive building campaigns, debt, debt debt.
Then to this cauldron you add a bad economy and lower demographics of kids college age.
Finally, you add the fact that the higher college tuition can not be paid off with graduating salaries...equals?
bump for later.
Get a federal college loan, go default and never see another tax refund until it’s paid off.
I see this as I see everything Obama and the Socialist/Democrats are in favor of, or making progress towards, and that is their POWER over every aspect of our lives. This move of direct loans puts their Leftist Government, via strings attached in control.
It will be interesting to see what those attached strings are comprised of.
Obama wants to nationalize 4 year college and put it under Dept of Ed, just like k-12. He said pretty much as such in his fake SOTU address.
Now they want to offer direct student loans.
Tomorrow to get said “loan” you will be required to volunteer with a branch of Obama’s Civilian Defense Force, green shirt and all, for a certain period of time.
It’s been 30 days, and the Nation we were just 1 year ago is crumbling before our eyes. This is just yet another example.
bttt
Great, another incentive for colleges and universities to continue astronomical, unreasonable tuition increases.
Fing Communist and it looks like he’s going to get away with it all. Time to head for greener pastures, they sure as hell aren’t here anymore.
Not a bad idea. When the program collapses, the government gets the blame instead of the private banks if there are any private banks left by that time.
For later
H.R.1106-Prevent Mortgage Foreclosures ....
