or are you hoping by not acknowledging it, we all will forget that we're going to owe it in a few weeks?

Alright, so I really doubt the student debt payment will resume. All the goodwill he created with the recent bill passed will be decimated if September 1st, borrowers are being told to pay up soon when they were given no warning by Biden beforehand. It would be nice if he outright said that of course.

i mean, yeah, giving people a fistful of cash with no strings attached would be a very popular move for any entity, but these people borrowed the money with the expectation that it would be paid back. idk what student loan interest rates are in the US (or if they're subsidized by the government), but they're likely much lower than what other types of loans have specifically to facilitate paying them back

all loan forgiveness does is signal that fiscal irresponsibility is a-ok

Yeah, no. The US situation is simply not comparable to anywhere else, not even to other places that still have student loans (but of the kind you describe).

Major difference is one debt is solely for education, a disgustingly expensive debt while many civilized nations offer free education. This continues to be the ongoing issue.

We spend billions on the military but you need to go 50k+ in debt if you want to further your education.

Its treated just like a credit card, and they continue to profit while you make small or minimum payment after another. It's designed so you struggle to keep up, and paying the least amount guarantees you pay a ton more over time.

No.

not yet

I'm just putting the money aside. On the 1% chance he does forgive loans. If repayment starts I'll just put a lump sum on them and avoid the interest anyways.

By having no regulations on how high colleges can raise the interests.

Also it's drilled into young children's heads that college is the only path to success and that you'll surely find a high paying job fresh out of college so there's no reason not to take out multiple loans.

Everything after this is irrelevant, elections in the US are a popularity contest. If it's a politically popular move, it would be beneficial to his election chances to do it. That's all there is to it

"Dont take the loan unless you are sure after college you get the job you want and you will be able to afford it" is about the dumbest take of the day.

Lemme make sure that my finances in 5 years are guaranteed, brb going to the future.

I bet he is going to extend the nonpayment period to Jan 23. Kicks it past the election and he can line repayment up with the new year.

The companies have been told not to send letters out telling people they have to resume payments.

No. My principal was 30k total.

I've paid 24k in 8 years. I don't even match the interest on the loan at that amount...

I think it was sarcasm?

At least I hope it was...

I mean paying 20k+ on a 30k loan shouldn't leave you with 45k left to pay, but that is how student loans can go these days...

A system designed to enforce impoverishment on people who try to get ahead...
