A revolt is growing as more people refuse to pay back student loans

[Manonthestreet]

Rates havent been 10%

 

[JakeStarkey]

I know folks who are paying 8 and 9%.

The govt should buy up all of the loans outstanding and re-interest that at 2%, which is the general inflation rate.

 

[Manonthestreet]

Really ........ interest rates have been low across the board for 6-7 yrs

 

[thereisnospoon]

It should go as well as your American Spring.
New car is a want Education is a need if you want a decent life. Only right wing republicans would PUNISH people for wanting to be educated. They end up like Stephanie for christ sakes!
Nice capitals.
I am very proud. People should not be forced to pay for an education. We pay enough in taxes we can all afford free education.
Wrong as usual. Its called taking a righteous stand against right wing hatred of being educated. So.

I earned my MEd working my way through it and paying it off

do I get some kind of rebate?

just askin'

You should sure. I say pay people back yearly with an extra check with their taxes OR if they OWE taxes they can choose to have their refund of what they paid towards college take care of it.

Awesome!

Why is that awesome? Do you pay taxes?

Because people should be getting educated for free...why is it that its that way k-12 but not k-college? College students should be worried about getting an education not worried about paying for next semester. Yes I pay taxes

No, people should not be getting a free college education. They shouldn't be getting a free K-12 education either. We can't all be doctors or financial analysts. We still need people to change the oil in our cars, fix our plumbing and build our houses.

There it is folks! A republican advocating child slave labor to get educated. Do we REALLY need any more proof republicans are ANTI EDUCATION?

Another stupid post, does this take practice or does it just flow from you?

Second nature.

 

[thereisnospoon]

I wish we could have free education too. I think it makes a better America to have more educated people, and I agree about being taxed enough. Cripes! I don't know how viable that is though.

Lets look at European countries that have it.

Responsibility and honoring your word. Two things Odium is against.

You couldn't possibly be more stupid. You nutters are all alike.

Yeah...And those confiscatory tax rates....
No thanks...

 

[thereisnospoon]

their education is FREE from K-12

the taxpayers shouldn't be responsible for anymore than that. but some don't seem to mind living their whole lives off the taxpayers back it seems.

I'm just shocked, a supposedly upstanding newspaper would even print something like that. Like hey no big deal, revolt on your responsibilities in life...

Still not comprehending it...that figures...low IQ republican voters....sad...Its not living off anyone when EVERYONE is paying taxes/having taxes taken out of things they already buy and its actually used for US and not war,foreign aid and a bigger military.

Oh...I get it . The taxpayers under your idea would continue to pay for people to attend college. No questions asked. No conditions. But the taxpayers are not "everybody" or "anyone"....
Here's an idea. If you think people should have a "free" continuing education feel free to write a check.
Do not demand the rest of us get trapped in your scheme.

Its the only response the stupidity that flows from your mouth deserves.

You are also free to move to Europe.
But I guess with your mentality, you'd want someone else to pay for your trip

Nope. But you can prove it if you wish.

[thanatos144]

Seeing as most college loans are from the government don't you think that maybe they are not wanting a better deal?

Oh, it's "evil" huh? That is ridiculous hyperbole. IF you want people to be able to pay for their own college education, then they are going to need to make more than the current minimum wage, because for a lot of people, that would be an impossible expectation. You can't get a GOOD job with no education. See how that works?

Begging the question. When I present an argument, in a debate, you respond to my point. See how that works?

No one pays someone more than they are worth. If they are worth less than the minimum wage, they don’t get a job. The idea that businesses say crap, they are worth $5 but I have to pay them $7.25 doesn’t happen. They don’t get jobs, period. How is that going to help them pay for their own college education?

And even if it did work, you are obsessed with someone else providing your charity, aren’t you? Government redistribution, forcing businesses to overpay. While your wallet sits securely unmolested while you claim to be the generous, caring one.

Note if I get my way, you still can make your own choices. If you get your way, your way is forced on me. That doesn’t bother you at all, does it?

Well, if you're not a conservative, then you should not be offended at all by my statements about conservatives.

Swish. I’m not “offended” at what you say about conservatives, I just consider it pointless for you to keep referring to what conservatives think when neither of us is one. What if we debate our views?

Most of the conservatives that post here feel exactly the way I described. They are against all of those things with FEW exceptions. You can even ask them, and so are your buddies. I've argued with plenty of these people about these things, so I know and I'm not full of shit.

You are full of shit. No Republicans or conservatives are proposing ending welfare.

It is an investment in the future of America to invest in education. Sorry, but you are wrong.

Begging the question. This would be a lot more interesting if you built on my responses rather than ignoring them and repeating your assumptions. I just specifically addressed this. You ignored it.

No they don't fail. Some of them suck and do fail. Others may not be perfect but things could be MUCH worse without them. Face facts, times have changed a lot and things are not as simple as they used to be. Things are MUCH more expensive and MUCH more complicated nowadays.

If you ever cared to challenge your assertions, you would wonder why you ever believed in government solutions. But there isn’t any meat behind your arguments, you just repeat your unsubstantiated claims

I addressed every one of your assertions, and well I might add.

 

[ChrisL]

the WashintonCompost is telling people to IGNORE their obligations and just tell everyone who paid for theirs to.......... FUCK OFF.

what a disgusting paper and the REVOLT should be against THEM and people not putting money in their pockets for crap they put out

It should go as well as your American Spring.

There should be no student loans at all. Maybe if enough people refuse to pay the whole program will be scrapped.

Then the idiots can demand new car loan forgiveness.

New car is a want Education is a need if you want a decent life. Only right wing republicans would PUNISH people for wanting to be educated. They end up like Stephanie for christ sakes!

hard to imagine a paper would print something so irresponsible and reprehensible to you and our country.

revolt against buying that pos rag

Nice capitals.

A BASIC education is a need. Higher education is a WANT...A luxury.
Most of all, it is a CHOICE...I don't have a college degree and I figured out a way to make a good living.....
Here's a newsflash for you.....There is no such thing as free. Someone has got to pay....And the taxpayers gave at the office for K- 12....That's the end.

Not anymore. You are out of touch.

welcome to an obama utopia

 

[Moonglow]

If you are willing to learn a trade you can afford to go to college....

 

[ChrisL]

We give billions of dollars away to OTHER countries. We should stop doing that, keep our money here at home, and use it to help OUR people and to make OUR country better and more educated and to give those who could not afford a higher education that opportunity, if they have the grades and the motivation to do so.

Another point, we outsource some of our jobs because we have a shortage in certain areas, like engineering, doctors, scientists, etc. We could offer educations in such fields that we suffer shortages in to OUR people here in America. PLENTY of people are smart enough and motivated enough to go to college and go on to do great things, but they just cannot AFFORD it. This is not the 1950s anymore, it's not even the 1980s. Things have changed a LOT since then.

Yes, Okie University was 19 dollars a credit hour when I went in the early eighties...

 

[JakeStarkey]

I spent $287 a quarter term when I was young.

That was a long time ago.

 

[thereisnospoon]

the WashintonCompost is telling people to IGNORE their obligations and just tell everyone who paid for theirs to.......... FUCK OFF.

what a disgusting paper and the REVOLT should be against THEM and people not putting money in their pockets for crap they put out

It should go as well as your American Spring.

There should be no student loans at all. Maybe if enough people refuse to pay the whole program will be scrapped.

Then the idiots can demand new car loan forgiveness.

New car is a want Education is a need if you want a decent life. Only right wing republicans would PUNISH people for wanting to be educated. They end up like Stephanie for christ sakes!

hard to imagine a paper would print something so irresponsible and reprehensible to you and our country.

revolt against buying that pos rag

Nice capitals.

A revolt is growing as more people refuse to pay back student loans - The Washington Post

Awesome!

You must be so proud

I am very proud. People should not be forced to pay for an education. We pay enough in taxes we can all afford free education.

Responsibility and honoring your word. Two things Odium is against.

Wrong as usual. Its called taking a righteous stand against right wing hatred of being educated. So.

A BASIC education is a need. Higher education is a WANT...A luxury.
Most of all, it is a CHOICE...I don't have a college degree and I figured out a way to make a good living.....
Here's a newsflash for you.....There is no such thing as free. Someone has got to pay....And the taxpayers gave at the office for K- 12....That's the end.

Not anymore. You are out of touch.

HA....Please show proof that higher education in an accredited college or university is an entitlement...
Out of touch with WHAT?
I could have gone on to college and maybe I'd be in a better spot. No guarantees. In life, there are none. A degree is not a guarantee of anything other than having earned the degree.
You people equate college with health insurance. You've been convinced that without either one, you'll die.
Jeez....
Newsflash.....No one is getting a free college degree and they WILL pay back their debts( to the taxpayers) or face the consequences.
There is no "free"....
