  1. This needs to work, the predatory loan practices that got us here were wrong in the first place. I just hope that he also fixes the problem of having to take on debt to learn in the first place.

  2.  @sagitarriulus9773 yah just sacrifice some of the best years of your life living off rice and beans, and never doing anything just so you can get an education. I can’t believe no one thought of this. Are you not mad that you had to do that just so some other guy could profit off of your need to learn skills?

  3.  @BlakeWheelersBurnerAccount but we are American, why run away from our home problems instead of solving them for the sake of our children.

  4. We have a long way to go before this is a reality, but don’t let the dream be forgotten

  5. That’s the problem with America (one of many) people let emotions drive decisions that require logic.

  6.  @BlakeWheelersBurnerAccount  there are also some people who would survive a nuclear apocalypse, does that mean it’s a good idea and what we should be doing? Just because it works for some people doesn’t mean it’s what we should use for everyone, expand your mind and think on a planetary scale, not a personal Predatory loans that target children who don’t know better is clearly a bad thing, even if some survive it.

  7.  @1911Earthling  I’m so tired of hearing that, like no one should ever dare to think of what could or should be, humans have reigned supreme for thousands of years and yet we struggle all the same, never improving, but always falling into the same trap. Our lives has been hijacked by the rich, and their plan worked so well that they make you think your suffering is simply the nature of being alive. It may be our current reality, but you would have to be a fool to think that’s the way it should stay.

  8.  @ZoneBTD  my gen x parents have $120,00 in student debt, and no degrees because life happens. is that delayed gratification? Sounds more like exploiting young students to me. Stop putting your generalized ideals BS onto everyone who isn’t old. Iv worked my ass off for 6 years and still would have a difficult time paying for school with my large savings, and no debt. that was with doing nothing but work, no fun, training, or socializing, which most would consider an important part of life.

  9. Is it possible that you would be more than a janitor if someone had helped you get and education in your time of need, instead of trying to get you into crippling debt? Collage kids are not spoiled, they are getting screwed from every direction even if they don’t know it yet. Though I do agree that parenting has gone WAY down hill, something an improved education system could help correct.

  10.  @brucefrykman8295  I’m not exactly sure what you are arguing for, you clearly highlight the problems of our hostile and inadequate education system, but don’t seem to give any realistic solutions.

  11. They want to look like they are on your side when really they support the same corporate agenda as every other politician.

  12. Imagine having such a selfish opinion that you have forgotten humans are supposed to work together. And not being able to use any logical arguments but just throw around insults and vague words like “woke” Your taxes already go to the trash, why not use them for something good for a change. LIKE EDUCATING CHILDREN! Most people would consider that to be common sense.

  13.  @nicholaslogan6840  you are correct that paying for collages with tax payer money would require rooting out the corruption that makes our government incapable of doing anything quality. But after that, tax payed collage would allow many to get higher education and then in turn repay the opportunity with taxes when they start working.

  14. He is just a corporate puppet no different than trump or any other politician,we merely have the illusion of choice.

  15.  @johnnyrambles they did that because people couldn’t pay due to hard time, so the debts are still the same.

  16. It’s all about corporate profits, every politician is paid by corporations and has the same agenda. Unfortunately many Americans are too stupid or too misinformed to see through the BS

  18. Mortgages are just as corrupt as student loan debt, but children should definitely get the priority on this one.

  20. That’s what happens when you let corporations run your government, if it’s good for profit, it’s probably bad for people, and if it’s good for people, it’s probably bad for profit, I wonder which one corporations care about.

  21. I wish more people could see that republicans and democrats have the same agenda, and just try to appeal to different voters to give the illusion of choice.

  22. Credit score doesn’t mean anything if the majority of people stop paying back their corrupt loans, it’s just another tool to keep you in line, no different than china’s social score.

  23.  @kirkbarber4040  so my options are sign my life to a corporate debt collector, or to a military that is also controlled by corporations? It’s almost like our system is designed so that no matter what you do, you will be under the control of the rich. You shouldn’t have to run away from your home just to survive either, people have lives outside of work that they would like to preserve.

  24.  @joec5544g  tax payers, education is a public responsibility. And believe it or not, those who graduate will soon after become tax payers themselves. It’s just shifting the burden from children onto adults, it also gives incentive to not let collages profiteer as it cost tax money which people seem to care about more than children for some reason. If America would stop sending money overseas for the sake of corporate profits, we would have more money for these services then we would ever need.

  25.  johnthomasgoesinya4997  no, everything I own was taken by corporations who also happen to control our government, so yes I guess in a way. If you don’t think the richest nation in the world is capable of providing healthcare and education for its people, while third world countries can, then idk what to say. Not to mention the fact that public health and education would be less expensive and ideally higher quality than private (the quality part has a lot of factors but it’s entirely doable)

  26.  johnthomasgoesinya4997  so you think 1% of the population should be aloud to horde 99% of the wealth? Thanks for playing??? Lol

  27.  johnthomasgoesinya4997  you think the rich pay taxes? 🤣🤣🤣 How naive, I don’t even know where to start explaining it when they have so many ways they avoid paying taxes.

  28.  @joec5544g  our current government absolutely not, our current government is owned by corporations, if you sever that tie then absolutely.

  29.  @joec5544g  your also right, it will leave you better off joining them than fighting them, but I don’t think about only me, I think about my children, their children, and everyone else who will come after me. Your mindset is what got us here in the first place, while we may only live 80 years, it’s our personal responsibility to think beyond that and leave a better world for those who come next. Sacrifice everything, your time, money, personal comfort, everything but your loved ones, lay down your life if you must, all for the future If you don’t you will die wishing you had Fight for the future, don’t submit too it.

  30.  @miepmaster25  we will cross that bridge when we get there, no point in being pessimistic right now.

  31.  @joec5544g  the statistic you are looking at only looks at income tax, so yes higher income people pay more income tax, but that statistic does not include corporate profits which are what is left over after everyone’s is paid, most rich peoples assets are protected under corporations not them personally, often these profits that makeup most of America’s total generated wealth are made to not be taxed at all, or be taxed very little. So while it may look like they pay their share when looking solely at income tax, it is far from the truth when viewing the entire picture. That’s not even counting all the extra taxes we pay that the rich can often avoid through corporate entities such as, sales, and property tax. Also I’m not sure where you are pulling your extra $5,000 a year statistic from, given the cost of collage now, the number of people who pay taxes, and the lifetime they would be paying the $5,000, it seems like way too high of an estimate.

  32.  @brucefrykman8295  not exactly sure what you are getting at, but value is generated by labor, for instance if I mine an ore, my labor created the value of that ore. Wealth is created by exploiting that labor, say the ore is worth $50, I tell you to dig it up and then only give you $25 while keeping the ore, exploiting your labor to generate excess value to increase my wealth. This is a simplified example, I could make it as complex and realistic as you want, but this is the base principle. In my ideal world there would be no capitalist laying claim to the mine, and instead you get to keep $40 from your ore, $10 going to expenses to mine it. This could be applied to almost everything

  33. Those loans are super predatory, most people don’t even understand what they are getting into because they are just kids, the fact that we use the need for children to get educated and learn new skills as a means of profit is ridiculous. The only ones axeing student debt will hurt is a few people who are already rich from exploiting children, meanwhile it will greatly help 1 in 5 Americans.

  34. Children making bad decisions? Of Fing course, why does everyone act like predatory loans targeting children who don’t know better isn’t absolutely disgusting.

  37. How is that different from corporations using predatory loan practices to seize children’s assets in exchange for education?

  38. Yah predatory loans that target children who don’t know any better makes perfect sense. F the kids they’ll figure it out 🙄 No wonder the rest of the world sees America as a dumpster fire, we have a country full of selfish, un empathetic, radical people. Try thinking if things on a planetary scale, not a personal.

  39. Unfortunately most Americans aren’t responsible enough to riot, they take things too far and it makes the whole movement look bad.

  41.  @kingramseyii3686  I am a tax payer, Iv been working since I was 16, going from 9-30 dollars an hour at now 23, I have no debt. And I still can’t afford collage, best case scenario I would be dead broke by the end, more Likely I wouldn’t have enough to finish. I however can see that education of children should be the priority goal of any nation, and the fact that we let private entities exploit children for the sake of profit is disgusting. Meanwhile my tax dollars get sent overseas also for corporate profits.
    1
  42.  @kingramseyii3686  that’s ironic, one of the first things I would change is making “lobbying”(bribes) illegal, the connection between government and money is what is ruining not only the country, but the world. And if I’m truly the only one looking to fight for the future instead of submit to it, then this world is more lost then I could have imagined.

  43.  @kingramseyii3686  yup, humanity sucks, but I’m stuck with them so I might as well try and do the best I can to wrangle them into something decent.

  48. I have had a job since I was 16, often working 6 days a week and extra hours, making 9-35 dollars and hour as time went on, I’m 23 now and I still would struggle to get through collage, best case scenario I would be dead broke afterwards. The predatory loan practices that target children who don’t know any better are what should be illegal

  50.  @1911Earthling  base logic makes sense, but in practice it does not work, with this many people, everything is governed by systems, not personal ability. Do you really think the child of a billionaire and a child of an average family have the same opportunities, regardless of personal ability? It’s the responsibility of a government to creat an environment where everyone thrives, not just the naturally gifted or lucky. We live in an advance society and people are still trying to apply survival of the fittest logic. We can’t have both, either we can have a society that creates order and allows everyone to thrive, or I can just come take what I want because I am the fittest.

  51. It’s all about corporate profits, we honestly don’t even have a government anymore, we are a puppet state.

  52. Not only are these predatory loans pitched to children who don’t know any better, but most go through there childhood being told you must go to collage at any cost. It’s disgusting that we use the need for children to be educated and learn new skills as a means to get profit out of literal children.

  53. Every politician is the same way because corporations fund their campaigns, and fill their pockets. Republicans and democrats have the same agenda but just appeal to different voters to give the illusion of choice.

  54.  @tricksonafixed  the only problem is that the way they go about it actually makes social services look bad, universal healthcare would be WAY better than Medicare, but people see Medicare and assume universal healthcare would suck as well. It’s almost like they are trying to tarnish what they claim to stand for, almost like they have a totally different agenda?

  55. Because life is about more than profit? Predatory loans that target children who don’t know any better for the sake of profit is just disgusting.

  56.  @alphaclam  the human brain doesn’t fully develop until around 26 years old, in my mind anything less is a child. Part of me wants to agree to that, but we also have older people who are out of touch with reality. honestly just spitballing here but what if only working class people got to vote? Literally just came up with that so it might be a bad idea I voted for trump both times, if the voting age had been 21, I would have known better when it came time to vote the first time. Not that all politicians don’t have the same corporate agenda anyway.
    1
  57.  @miltonbates6425  as a stated before that makes sense as long as you don’t have the problem of older out of touch folks calling all the shots. For instance in a union contract renewal I once had, we voted to accept the first contract offered because it had some retirement benefits, and the older folks outnumbered the young. We could have negotiated for a much better contract but we’re sold out by the old. Legal adult age should likely be raised to at least 22, along with possibly a cap on voting age to prevent a majority elderly population from controlling everything when the population is in decline. Again, coming up with these on the spot so reform is Likely necessary. Non of this changes the fact that education should be a human right, and offered to anyone wanting to seek higher education, without being thrown to the wolves though. America has the resources to have the most educated population on the planet, to bad a majority educated population isn’t good for corporate profits.

  58. I couldn’t go in the first place, partially because my parents have $120,000 in student debt, and never even finished collage. There are MANY in the same situation that this would greatly help.
