    I went to the Art Institutes. The Art Institutes were a scam school. Their lessons were out of date and teachers told us to watch UA-cam to learn, they even forced students to grade other students work or they would be failed. Their employment statistics were outright lies and earning potential was straight lies. Their counselors were salesmen, not people who cared. They 100% deserved to have their schools closed down and everyone's payments refunded. They were sued multiple times for years. Our government, both parties, knew this garbage was going on for a long time and never did a damn thing about it.

      Exactly. I also graduated out of the Art institute in 2021. I applied in July 2017, and just made the cutoff. My friend who applied after October 2017 did not make the cut off. She did not have her loans forgiven. But just because the schools transitioned from for-profit to non-profit doesn't mean that the school was still a scam after! She got just about as much as I did from the school as she did. And for her to be left out because of the transition, I hope that she gets her loans forgiven too. Out of our friend group she's the one who needed it most. Furthermore, none of my friends from the Art institute are working any industry jobs. There were no job connections at that place. They hired graduated students as teachers with no industry experience. On the school and digital because of covid, the education was non-existent. Senior year was supposed to be for portfolio reviews and hands-on experience with the pipeline, and because covid happened, I got none of that, not even an attempt to try. They just wanted to take my money and get me out of there. Luckily, when the school went down last year, I got to swipe some free stuff, and that free stuff is the most at school ever did for me, well besides my friends I guess

      First off, art school isnt the scam, its universities. Charlie Kirk has been explaining this for a while. Why do you think democrats get so worked up and upset they have him on campus? The same reason they use talking points to get the students upset that Charlie goes to campuses. These schools are democrat and only teach kids to be dependent on the government. For example, yall want the government to bail you out. Yall knew the tuition and didnt have the money to pay it. You hoped one day you would have the money to repay it. That isnt how life works. Dont believe me? Look back at 2008. Broke the middle class, kept the middle class from becoming successful and sent a lot into poverty. But the banks and government weren't affected. Just like in this situation. But the Universities took the place of banks.

Plus, without a degree, it's hard to get a good job. Min wage jobs choose between rent and food, except with a student loan. I've actually had loan collectors recommend that I sell drugs, or become a prostitute.

Unfortunately, this isn't the only college that does this; from what I can tell, most colleges do this to some degree. It should be addressed, and it should be considered illegal. We need limits on how much these institutions can charge people. Colleges are taking advantage of students and their families.
    Another thing to remember when they discharge all of this debt this will be stimulating the economy because the student will have money to participate in everyday things like buying a home or maybe taking a vacation.

If not and you had to pay (that has nothing to do with any trust fund or other economic hand-outs offered by your parents to you as a debt free instrument) out of your own pocket and/or with loans, that super sucks.

How about we cut spending or cut tax loopholes BEFORE increasing government liabilities even more. In my personal life I’d never consider taking on more debt before either cutting spending or increasing my income.

    Seems there might be a happy medium somehow. I had humungous loans offered to me on a silver platter at Boise State when I was there, but my gut instinct was not to borrow any more than what I absolutely needed. That strategy proved sound in the long run. I don't owe anybody anything. That being said, there were probably millions of students not so experienced or lucky that they took out giant loans. Those loans were predatory. It is those kinds of loans for which people could use a break. Should they be completely absolved? I'm not so sure. Who pays? Whose backs does this land on? The schools are complicit, the students after all borrowed to go to school, the taxpayers are just trying to survive.

      Any decision that benefits Americans, costs the government money and is made by the sitting president who happens to also be soon up for re-election, is in essence the president paying for votes. Most presidents if not all as obvious have done this or at least tried to.
      One of the most obvious to do it(as you could've probably guessed) was Pres. Trump. Who specifically wanted his name printed on the stimulus checks that were sent out in the time before the election. Literally sending 150 million Americans checks with his name on it, as if he had suggested the stimulus check idea himself. When it worked and he jumped up in the polls he took it even further and tried to raise the second stimulus check from 600 to 2000, but that was blocked by the GOP.
      It begs the question if Pres. Trump would've pushed for more than tripling the amount of the stimulus check if it had been deemed necessary during a time when the election wasn't coming up. We'll never know the answer to that question, but if even his own party isn't on board, that should tell you a thing or two.

      @@chillwill5080 That and public funding of education has been steadily reduced over the past few decades, resulting in the need for students to take out loans as previous generations earnings aren't enough to keep up with inflation since real wage growth is *maybe* 3% to 5% per year. But the cost of education has increased by just over 20 times since 1963.
      Basically, everyone in America cries, "Education is the future, it's for our children! Save our children!" Then you get Qanons spouting, "Teachers need guns! We don't want gun control. We're good with OK Corral in the classroom" and "Higher education?? Study the Jesus book! Everything you need to know is in the Jesus book!" or "They don't teach the jesus book at colleges, which is why young people don't like the jesus rituals and beliefs like Q-Anon, so we'll reduce their budgets since they don't do anything for us with the jesus book!"
      Education here is way second class compared to what it was historically. If my child wants to go to university and not learn a trade or something else when he's older, I'm definitely prodding him to study in Europe rather than here. It just doesn't make financial sense to do so since the loans are driven to for-profit servicers, and how is it good for any economy to have your citizens/residents start out their career and adult life with so much debt they can't take risks with entrepreneurship loans that don't involve striving to be YT/TikTok or MTG/Matt Gaetz (sans the politically connected father in Florida) famous.
