My daughter is about to start her junior years at a Big 10 school. I’m paying for her college. I paid for my college. If SCOTUS allows zhao biden’s student loan “forgiveness” to go through, i will take out a student loan for my daughter in my name and i won’t pay it back.

If they threaten me i will send them $10 a month.

Does anyone know when SCOTUS is supposed to rule on this?

$10,000/$20,000 per student

$10,000/$20,000 per voter

Joe’s plan isn’t even need-based. It is not Marxist. It is the concoction of a vote-buying politician.

Shame on the universities and colleges that sell unmarketable degrees in exchange for loan money that no sane person could ever imagine is repayable.

Exactly right.

B.S. degrees like "Black Studies" and "Womens Studies" and such nonsense are marketable exactly nowhere.

Math, Science, Technology, Engineering = all marketable.

Trades like plumbing, carpentry, electricity, environmentals, building, mechanics, auto repair and more = all marketable.

in fact, there's a shortage of ALL in the trades.

Want to make money quickly without incurring tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt? THE TRADES!

In fact, they often pay a good buck to learn!

Why are so many people so damn' stupid buying into the "college is for everyone?" bullshit?

I went to college and have multiple degrees. I paid for my education myself. I realize I'm not the rule and more the exception. I get that. Still, it's not for everyone. Just like me going into the trades wasn't for me. I'd have failed out in any of the trades in a heartbeat (and I should've.)

It is almost never necessary.

As a vote-buying scheme, it is not proper.

Even if Congress mandated Joe do it, it would be unconstitutional.

Any student loan forgiveness should come right out of the colleges that benefited from them. Draw the endowments down to zero if necessary. Cut the pay of the professors.

It's all for the common good, right?

I attended night courses at Community Colleges in Dallas County and Tarrant County for 89 hours credit @ $25 an hour.
(I was 25 and had already completed military service.)

Transferred to a State University and paid $121 for 18 or more credit hours per semester. All except final year was part time while working full time, married and raising two girls.
Last year was full time, 21 hours.

No student loans. $75/mo. VA benefits. Bought used text books.

Before Sr. year, commuted 120 miles/day between home, school and work, round trip.

I find it difficult to sympathize with the whiners boo-hooing about their student loans. They need brains to make choices.

They’ll be forced to find husbands, with the problem being that most of the decent men now look overseas for wives.

Unfortunately, at this point in time, there is NO constitution.. There is only "democracy". (spit)

“That’s a pretty substantial amount of money that women are taking on in many cases to just sort of achieve what men don’t even need to have a degree to achieve,” Gloria L. Blackwell, CEO of AAUW, tells TIME.

What utter bullshit!

It might be true. Interesting wording here. Is Ms. Blackwell saying that women are taking on debt because they cannot achieve what men can without a degree? Or is she saying that women are unnecessarily taking on debt despite their being able to do just as well as men at their jobs?

Why should people who did not go to college pay for those that did?

“owing an average of $37,558”

About $5,000/year spread over about 10 years with interest or about $2.50/hour of work.

Maybe some people ( ahem) just aren’t smart enough to recognize that borrowing a lot of money means having to earn enough to pay it back.

‘I went to grad school because I needed to make up for the gender pay gap.’

Went to grad school and still too stupid to know there is no gender pay gap.

Ahh, the old familiar meme "Women and Minorities Hardest Hit."

The Left has been clubbing us with this effectively since the 1960s.
