1. Why is this being illustrated as a direct and personal attack against black people? The writer clearly has an agenda. Like... Obviously
2. Why is he acting like only black people have bad credit? Bad credit is bad credit. And we don't even know how bad someone's credit has to be, to be denied a student loan. Either way, I'm sure this isn't racially discriminatory.
3. Can't the student just take out the student loan if their parents credit is messed up? My parent's credit is just fine and they still made me take out the majority of my own loans
4. If a person with bad credit can't get a credit card, or a home loan, why should they be able to get a student loan? Doesn't it pose the same risks. Isn't this the same way we created the housing bubble... giving loans to people who don't have the means to pay the loans back? Haven't people here been predicting the same type of "bubble" with student loans?
5. I think this is smart, with the exception of applying this to students who were already enrolled in school. But otherwise, it makes perfect sense. I know people with good credit and good jobs who struggle to pay off their rediculous student loans, and we expect people with bad credit to be able to? All the while accruing more and more interest with every deferment?
Maybe this will convince students to go to schools they can actually afford. Maybe this will convince students to get degrees in majors they can actually use, since they'll have to put the loans in their own names. Maybe students will stop wasting their parents' money to go to school when they really don't want to, and end up with 4 years of student loan debts and no degree.... 6 years of student loans with a degree in sociology or psychology with no plans to go to graduate school
For the most part it makes sense to me...
