Sen. Elizabeth Warren proposes canceling approximately $640 billion in outstanding student loan debt

Sen. Elizabeth Warren rolled out yet another ambitious policy proposal Monday morning as she called for canceling approximately $640 billion in outstanding student loan debt.

The plan would eliminate up to $50,000 in student loan debt for each person with less than $100,000 in household income. The $50,000 in relief would gradually diminish for people with household incomes between $100,000 and $250,000 . People with household incomes over $250,000 would not receive debt cancellation.Sign Up

Warren couples the student debt forgiveness with a proposal to eliminate tuition and fees at all two-year and four-year public colleges. She presents the proposals as working in tandem: First, eliminate much of the student loan debt and then restructure the system to ensure that such debt doesn’t accumulate again.

Nobody force them to sign those papers promising that they would pay.

She is a nut

Just ask these guys they can make it very easy, There are 540 billionaires in the United States, with a combined net worth of $2.399 trillion, to clear the debts for students is nothing for them.

Elizabeth Warren's new ambitious policy proposal: Cancelling outstanding student loan debt nearly equal to the 1 years defense budget

I think moving forward every spendthrift wack-a-mole plan put forth by the Democrats should be payed for SOLEY by the morons that vote for them.

Canceling? Hell NO. Low refinancing? Yes.

Buying votes. Crazy

How about my mortgage payment while you’re at it? And my business loan too. Let’s stick it to those rich bastards and corrupt bankers!

Is this an exercise in giving incompetent and alcoholic lawyers an can't lose shot at arguing a case before SCOTUS?

Then give everyone not in debt a $50,000 small business loan so we can create jobs for the college debtors.

I'm sure glad I chose a more affordable college and took out minimal loans, and busted my ass saving to pay what I owed only to see everybody else get their loans forgiven after they went to a school they couldn't afford on loans they couldn't repay. Seems fair.

Fuck the chicken in every pot promise was way cheaper

A desperate politician is a dangerous thing.

It is good

But then how would we be able to give America's billionaires another trillion dollar payout?

ewarren is just pandering for votes, this will never happen, just shameless.

Build a wall from sea to shining sea first.

She doesn’t have that money and Congress has to vote and Senate has to say yes , Bribery

A great way to cheapen the GI Bill. If you're poor and want to go to college, enlist in the military for four years, win/win

All for tuition free colleges. Can we cancel people's medical debt ewarren ? This is a very real reason why people struggle to pay bills, buy a home etc.

BetsyDeVosED , the junk debt buying queen, will not be happy with this.

This is not a feasible proposal. You can not tax your way to free everything. Refinancing, working with collages and universities to bring down the staggering cost of higher education has a greater chance of success.

Of course those of us who spent years paying off our tuition debt will be getting refund checks, right? SenWarren ?

They lie & lie, they know they can't make any of these ideas a reality, they promise shit 2attract naive credulous voters 2 vote for them, but they know it can't be done, they will never get support from REPS to do any of it. So Rather vote 4 a strong realistic economy w/Trump

If she could actually do this, I’d vote for her, even though I find her personality unappealing.

Go Liz!

Elizabeth Warren is proposing using taxpayer money to wipe out hundreds of billions of dollars in student-loan debt as a way to control rising college costs. The left is tripping over itself to offer things for 'free' as if they won't actually cost taxpayers. This woman is a big fraud.... Pocahontas How?
