LOL.. a student bailout.. hmph… I could only wish something this miraculous would happen. My tuition was lost, adn my school is threating to send it to collections.. Ive lost my job and now I had to put my business degree on hold and incure more debt by changing majors into a field that have a better likely hood of hiring. Pftt… Medical assisting school will cost me 16,000 for 8 months, but I had to take out at least a 20,000 loan just to cover expenses.. Im already poor.. I just hope PELL gives me a refund so I can play catch up…

For years I have often day dreamed about something like this. I had a 5,500 student loan in 91 when I was a teenager. In a worthless ass computer repair school in Boston. A big waste of time and money. I just paid 6400 on it last year and still owe over 8K. That is the only reason I have not finished school and I am just a few points short of MENSA. I have over two years credits but am paying it out of pocket. Not whining Im just saying I have already given these people Citicorp-ASA over 12K. For a BS school. Not even a degree school.

Oh I culd go on forever about student loans. many get loans because it is the only way to pay for college, and you believ that the education will pay off and you will get a job with a high enough salary to pay back the loans. Unfortunately most entry level positions are not enought to pay living and the high inflated monthly payment of student loans.

I just learned that my college Coppin State University has one of the lowest graduation rates of all the colleges in the country. I did,t graduate for several reasons but am not surprised at this stat. I dont equate a degree with success however I do need to complete this for my own personal enrichment. I cant afford to accumulate anymore debt in student loans and my employer wont reimburse me for completing my coursework so i need to figure out how to graduate w/o the additional debt.

Yeah…things are out of control. If you can’t find a job how are you going to keep up with all the increases in goods and services? Everyone has to eat for goodness sakes. Companies and the government can care less because they are eating every second. It’s bullshit man!

Some type of bailout would be nice. I’ve had this in mind since all of the bailouts started.

A student loan bailout would be Wonderful!!! Hell after you finish school you supposed to figure out how to use your degree to make money in order to better your self, not bust your butt to try to pay back for a better life and career!

The bailout shouldve been for the people not the corporations…They get it and go on lavish trips in luxurious jets while the people still complain about petro bein high…F*# a bailout…We needa couple of John Dillingers and Robin Hoods!

Now that would be some bailout for ya’! I know people who are disabled and can’t pay back their student loans. Their stimulus money, even the $250.00 for disabled people was taken and sent to pay on their student loans. What’s the point of it if the people can’t get it?

I would love a student loan bailout. makin the payments every month is a chore. Maybe it would work if this gets out in the public eye.

it sounds too good to be true, but it just might work, lol. Considering for me, thats 250.00 I could put towards food or home ownership, why wasnt this proposed. Who cares if GM stays its going to go one way or the other, eventually, but change that starts now is more effective for Americans struggling NOW! I think we should start a petition or a drive to push this. What would the plan look like? Of course, these companies are gonna want something in return or the government might. What would that be? I think no interest student loans and student loan interest waivers should be an idea of the past, present, and future.LETS PUSH

I think that would be a great idea, since i have student loans. that would be just beautiful, I could pay them off and finish school without having to scramble and save to make payments.
