What would be the problem with paying back student loan debt if you have a regular income?  Like, I understand that it would be difficult to pay back student loans if you can't find a job after college.  But if you do find a steady job it doesn't seem that hard.  It might take a long time but what would be the problem if you're making a regular income?  It took me 13 years to pay mine back on a teachers salary (my first teaching job was in western ks and started at 32K). I guess I'm asking if this is really a problem with the job market and not specifically with student loan debt?

I think the job market overall has been pretty good. It's probably a little rough at this exact moment, but I think it will bounce back after COVID. A lot of people get degrees there has never really been a market for, and a whole lot of people also build a lot of debt and then fail to graduate.

Attention BidenVoter.   Please make sure your guys tries to get this corrected.   Certainly the Biden Family while being completely sold out to the CCP . . .  can at least leverage a smidgen of that tiny little piece of good will equity they hold with Xi and friends to get this stopped.

He will listen to you too! You got rid of the black president, we got rid of the dumb crap, can you call that even in your book and let's bury all this division!

Some people don't understand term limits, and in perfect MIR like form, thanks for injecting skin color into the discussion.

I can assure you that the people actually running the country around that sleepy old man are going to ensure that he hears very little if any input from conservatives.
Trump doesn't understand term limits :sad:

Isn't biden talking about putting some Rs in his cabinet?

We’ll have to wait and see what happens in GA.  But being a member of a political party really doesn’t mean much.

Were you single when you started paying that debt off, kids? $32,000 dollars a year in western Kansas is frankly a lot of money, especially for a single person, especially a decade or so, but I'm guessing you're even older than that. Most Americans, especially millennials with college loan debt, don't live where they can be comfortable with $32,000. With the COVID crisis, this is even worse. If he's going to do this, it really needs to happen soon.

Yes Phil, there’s absolutely no doubt whatsoever that ChiCom Joe is going to send Republican appointees/nominees over to Capital Hill for confirmation in front of a Dem controlled Senate. 

FFS, is absolutely correct in regards to your thought processes.   

They’re just options and there’s already substantial opposition building.

Also, in multiple cases political party membership has little to do with personal political dogma.   Apparently you’ve never heard of RINO or DINO etc.

I got married BEFORE my 5th year of college (what a dweeb, right?). We had our first kid the year after I graduated in 2007.  Without going into detail we weren't very 'comfortable' financially for a while being married with kids so young.  Like I said it took a while because we both only able to make the minimum payment for many, many years.

Everything about this is so western kansas, and I don't mean that in a bad way, I love western kansas. Congrats on getting those loans paid off, it's really a great accomplishment.

The reason why this is being discussed is because it's difficult for so many people to pay them off. Only 55% of student loans get repaid, a whopping 10% of student loans become defaulted.  To put this in perspective auto loans currently have a default rate of 5%, that's a pandemic number btw, the 10% student loan default rate is prepandemic. The default rate for home loans is 7%. Student loan debt is a legit national crisis.
