Obama did that - the student loan scam is killing America

The goal of Obamas nationalizing of loans for education (student loans) is to destroy private colleges...

The Student-Loan Scam Killed ITT Tech

what killed ITT is that it was a scam from the very beginning. Like the University of Phoenix and a bunch of others that promise degrees and provide nothing.

Libertarian Quacks don't know what they are talking about.

Notwithstanding, the article is a decent assessment of the overall status of the insane student loan bubble...that will bust.
 
Take the private sector out of the student loan program and have government loan at COL levels.

How? The reason why the Housing Bubble Burst was that all those McMansions couldn't be resold when their owners defaulted.

People can't default on their student loans so easily. If you stop paying, the government can garnish your tax returns.

That said, I do think we need to rethink our student loan system. We need to stop subsidizing the scams like ITT and Pheonix and all those annoying things that pop up on your browser. There should be standards before you get a loan.

That doesn't solve it.
The problem with the student loan bubble is two-fold..,.

#1 - Loans made to students who have almost no chance of ever paying the loan off, not to mention that many of these same extreme high risk "students" also receive tax dollars for living expenses.
#2 - "Loans for the asking" mentality of the government system provides an impossible to resist temptation for schools to overcharge. They overcharge in two ways - bloated tuition, and bloated class requirements. Guaranteed loans means guaranteed payments to schools....almost no matter what.

The Student-Loan Scam Killed ITT Tech

ITT imploded and has long been known, like Corinthian, to be a waste of time and money. The only way this school could exist is by federal loans. ITT is a scam.

Private universities are Dartmouth, Princeton, John Hopkins, Loyola etc. You think they are worried? Nah. Do you know why?

ITT could not even pull it's head out long enough to recreate a vo-tech school worth a damn.
 
Gov't shouldn't be in the student loan business at all.

Banks should be and yes, they should charge students a higher rate (omg, that's not fair!!!). because students are higher risk to insure.

No gov't bucks flowing to colleges, higher interest rates = less students applying for loans, less students going to school = schools will have no choice but to lower costs.

Win/win.

fwiw, college is completely over rated.
