publican Supreme Court more concerned with the profits of banks charging 8%interest on government guaranteed student loans oh, what a surprise. I don't want to ever hear any more conservative whining about student loan forgiveness until the banks are exposed to the actual risks of loaning money for a return of 8%. They risk nothing but whine about forgiveness because they think free rides are only for the richest 1% of the populatiom. It's like they are mad that someone besides themselves is benefiting from government larfess when it all should be reserved for the greediest 1% of the population. Students getting educatiobs benefits our society; look at employment web sites and notice the demand for RNs and other trained medical professionals.

OK Visitor, good luck when you go to the hosoital and there are no nurses or doctors because young people are deciding that higher education isn't worth the cost after you figure in student loan interest. Other modern nations offer free college; they will lead the world of the future; not countries like the U.S. that are too cheap to educate the population. And when you go to the hospitals it will be people educated in their home country providing care to the cheapskate gringos.

"8% is a pretty good rate for a student loan. A 30 fixed home mortgage is 7%."

Yout mortgage isn't guaranteed by the Federal Government and if you can'y pay it can be discharged in bankruptcy.
