Bernie says it is time for Wall Street to bail out student borrowers
Expect the 20+ Dem Presidential candidates to out do one another in offering schemes to eliminate student debt, and attract those student voters.
Bernie says the problem is that the Federal Govt has not stepped in and helped students.
This is grossly incorrect. The Feds have stepped in only to help universities raise fees and tuition with no downside or risk to the school whatsoever. And the real tragedy
if a college degree (notice it iis always a generic degree,never s specific one) is so valuable, why do so many students have difficulty repaying hhe loan. The answer is that far too many degrees simply do not deliver the job ready skills to meet the debt payments. And that is the tragedy.
And now a question, if Bernie et al are going to wipe out existing college debt, what about the debt currently being pile up by those enrolled in college? Doe s that get wiped out the day the student graduates?
