The greater question is, why is a person of retirement age STILL on the hook for student loans to be repaid? Was it a matter of co-signing with a younger person, or was the payment so stretched out that after some forty years or so, there was still a balance unpaid?

No educational program is worth that much. Maybe it is time for the entity that extended the money creating the student loan debt in the first place to take a write-down of the remaining debt. Blood from turnips, and all.

I paid 8+ hard years of military service (7 years overseas) for my education. From my perspective, these seniors (I’m 65) borrowed on their future with no intent on paying anything back - they gambled on their Democrat Masters to bail out their loans. Guess what? Uncle has bills for younger voting freeloaders to pay.
