AliVelshi My wife has student loans but is a stay at home mom. They’re paid by my employment. How would it affect us?

AliVelshi Another example of robbing the poor to pay the rich

AliVelshi Sounds like another program for the Republicans to steal from.

AliVelshi Maybe government needs to get out of the lending business

AliVelshi smh

catherineanntuc AliVelshi GOP is the new evangelical mafia. WWJD? 🌎😞🌏😞🌍

AliVelshi Trump ran on reining in Wall Street and taking away the carried interest loophole that gives hedge fund Mgrs a 15% tax rate. The new tax law did not remove that loophole. Why? Not one politician ran on deducting loan pmts from payroll so who does this benefit?

graham_monica AliVelshi Disgraceful. Garnishing wages so that deVos’s loan shark pals can make more profit? What world are we living in?

AliVelshi Dems and Republicans alike don’t care for a mans child support to be pulled from their check, or a judgement, yet you think people shouldn’t pay for college? payyourbills dems and keep the country going.

AliVelshi So if your income suddenly gets reduced by your spouse losing their job, for example, and you have to choose between paying for heat/feeding your children OR paying your student loan, guess what? Republican “small government” will make that choice for you.

AliVelshi silly......there is a plan to cut the cost of a 4-yr college education by about 20-25%...

AliVelshi I hope their planning to fun many many more homeless shelters!

AliVelshi It’s another way to repay a debt. It’s a choice to incur debt. Past generations worked thru college & borrowed as little as needed for the difference. If you want to find a better job w/ higher pay stop voting for Dems & choose better degrees. Grow up. Taxpayers don’t owe you.

AliVelshi Imagine the administrative cost to businesses. They have to implement payroll procedures for garnishments and will increase cost in labor for those tasks. Also, some companies will not hire or fire those with garnishments. Illegal? Yes, but happens all the time.

AliVelshi This works for taxes...but the left will say there is now way this will work with loan repayments! Maybe we should STOP tax withholding and MAKE EVERYONE WRITE A CHECK to pay all fed taxes, SS tax, Medicare tax, state tax, etc. No more withholding from our checks!!!

AliVelshi What the fuck?

AliVelshi If colleges and universities would stop dragging out curriculum, a person could get a true education. Cut all the BS courses, and stick to core curriculum. It should only take 2-3 years for a BA. All other is waste and they know it.

AliVelshi Well There Goes The Millennial Vote GOP

AliVelshi So this is their answer to the epidemic of student loan default mostly caused by stagnant wages and students' inability to find work post-graduation that pays enough to compensate for the massive debt incurred based on a hope for a better future; lost mainly due to GOP policies.

AliVelshi Who is this supposed to help? I have my student loans on auto-pay, I pay my bills. If this is supposed to help the borrower, how about lowering the interest rates and make it so a person doesn't have to go into debt for an education.

kathcor AliVelshi If we are to compete for companies & jobs in the world we must have an educated populace. The rest of indulstr world has low/no cost education. Drop the interest on college loans as this is a benefit to our nation. 2nd step free community college

AliVelshi You would think a trillion dollar tax cut for the rich would be enough.

AliVelshi Say what?

AliVelshi No way!

AliVelshi GOP so now you’re proposing to steal the money from the kids as soon as they get a job. You are the biggest disgrace is in American history. Our young people can barely support themselves let’s steal all their money. BiggestDisgraceInAmericanHistory

AliVelshi I could have bought a house (somewhere cheaper than Portland) with the money I paid SLOANS. Education is too expensive to afford on low middle/middle class income. We need to make education realistically affordable. We will fall behind other developed countries if we don't.

AliVelshi It's called paying on time like you agree to do when you take out the student loan. Anyone ever heard of direct deposit? Same thing!

AliVelshi The GOP wants those that aren't rich to have absolutely NOTHING to live on.

AliVelshi Boo, hiss. How about forcing the student loan scams to reduce their interest to close to nothing. People fear getting an education that they will be paying for the rest of their lives. The greed of colleges and loaners are responsible for our world decline in education.

AliVelshi Bad idea! There are other things that the former student needs, like food and shelter. Lower interest rates and allow refinancing.

AliVelshi Republicans balance the checkbook to the penny when it comes to dealing with people of any need but comfortably light the cigars of the rich with hundred dollar bills when attending to them!

AliVelshi People can’t make it on what they earn as it is, way to kick them when they’re down! 30-40 years ago your salary coming out of college could buy you a home, car & pay your student loan debt. Now your salary can’t even cover rent!

AliVelshi No no no, they just everyone to suffer 😡

AliVelshi What Making people pay back the money they borrow? This is crazy 🤣🤣🤣

AliVelshi That’s just mean

AliVelshi That’s it works in the UK and it works perfectly fine

AliVelshi Aside from the awful idea this is for students, it would be another headache for employers.

AliVelshi Sure.... lets go after young adults.... It's not like they vote, right? OY.

AliVelshi Student loans should be interest free. I’m not for canceling all past loans, but government or business making interest off student loans is bad for our country. Cancel the interest.

AliVelshi I have a way better idea. Deport republicans so there’s room for immigrants with a soul.

AliVelshi F**k that !!

AliVelshi Nope.
