Student loans are predatory and they are a scam This American took out student loans. Under her current payment plan, she’ll pay $69,087 over the next 10 years After 10 years her balance will have skyrocketed to $515,646, roughly 4x her original loan amount due to interest Luckily for her if she makes all these payments all that interest will be forgiven, this is because she’s on one of the older plans that are eligible for forgiveness Just imagine making $500 payments for 10 years, paying off your balance and then having your remaining balance still be 4x your original loan amount Just think about how insane this is

A guy graduates with student loans and lands a job as a sales rep at a tile store, making around $4–6K a month. When repayment starts, instead of paying his loans directly, he decides to put them on a credit card to “buy some time.” Months later, he realizes what he’s done; his student loan interest was between 4–10%, but now he’s dealing with credit card interest climbing into the high 20s or even 30's. This is how small financial misunderstandings turn into big problems. Credit cards aren’t a safety net; they’re one of the most expensive ways to carry debt if you don’t pay them off immediately. Swapping lower-interest debt for higher-interest debt is basically moving backward financially. Do you think schools should require basic financial education before graduation, or is this something people should be expected to learn on their own?

Caller: “My wife and I have about $2.3M in debt, but it’s all low interest. Mortgage, rental property, student loans, car loan. We make about $1.5M a year, and our net worth is around $5.2M . I’m wondering if we should just invest instead of rushing to pay it off.” Dave Ramsey: “Hold on. Break that down for me.” Caller: “$2M on our primary home at 2.4%, $250K rental at 3%, $80K student loans at 1.6%, and a $40K car loan at 4%.” Dave Ramsey: “So you’re looking at it like, ‘why pay 2% when I can earn 4% in the market?’” “That’s the mistake. You’re treating it like math only. Debt isn’t just interest rates. Debt is risk.” “The more you stack it up, even when it’s cheap, the more exposed you are when life changes.”

🚨 Bipartisan push to cap federal student loan rates at 2% Rep. Anna Paulina Luna and Democrat Jared Moskowitz are trying to force a House vote that would slash interest rates on new and existing federal student loans to 2%. The idea: instead of more mass forgiveness, give borrowers a real chance to actually pay them off. Luna says Democrats who used to support this are suddenly silent or opposed, because they don’t want Republicans looking good less than 100 days from the midterms. So far only one Democrat has signed the discharge petition. Luna has reached out to President Trump for support. No word yet. This should be an easy win for young Americans. Politics is getting in the way.

An entire generation has been sold out by successive Governments, trapped by Student Loan interest rates so high even a loan shark would hesitate. I graduated as a doctor with around £75,000 of debt. After years of repayments, I now owe close to £90,000. That is the reality of Plan 2 loans: extortionate interest rates mean balances can rise even while regular deductions are taken from your salary. We’re told this system is “fair.” The Chancellor, Rachel Reeves, has defended it as such. But I struggle to see how a system can be described as fair when those who can afford to pay upfront leave university owing nothing beyond the headline fee, while those from less financially secure backgrounds carry escalating balances for decades. Freezing repayment thresholds while interest continues to accrue increases the real burden on graduates year after year. The Labour Education Secretary, Bridget Phillipson, may prefer to debate who first introduced tuition fees, but that does not change the fact that the current Government is actively maintaining this structure. Successive governments may have built this structure, but the current Government is choosing to maintain it. And that choice has consequences. For many of us, this no longer resembles a conventional loan. It functions as a long-term graduate tax that quietly removes a significant portion of our income every month, often well into our 40s or 50s. If this Government believes in growth, productivity and social mobility, it cannot defend a model that disproportionately burdens those without family wealth. Reform is within its power: cap the interest, review the thresholds, and redesign the structure so that repayment reduces debt in a meaningful way. Governing is about taking responsibility for the system you oversee. The question now is whether this Government intends to defend the status quo or change it.

Now I’ve seen it all The Wall Street Journal is actually reporting that Donald Trump taking away loan funding for college majors that don’t financially benefit students is “a good thing” Even calling them “clown colleges” “College programs that don't leave graduates financially better off will soon be ineligible for federal student loan funding. Here's why that's a good thing.” They explain how predatory colleges have become and how by taking away the funding for these programs it’ll force schools to lower their prices and make college cheaper “When the government stops providing taxpayer-funded loans to these programs, it keeps students from making a bad investment, and it incentivizes colleges to either lower prices or reform these programs to make them better. The government shouldn't fund college programs that leave students worse off” “The point of a federal student loan program should be to help students access a quality education, not give money to literal clown colleges.” Honest reporting from the Wall Street Journal… who knew that was even possible There was a study done on colleges and colleges who had students with access to federal student loans and Pell grants had 78% higher prices than other schools that didn’t have those students So this means colleges are skyrocketing prices because federal loans will be given out to cover the costs. Translation: They are robbing Americans blind

🚨 THE NISSAN ALTIMA BECAME AMERICA’S “LOW CREDIT” CAR — AND WHAT NISSAN DID HAS PEOPLE STUNNED A breakdown going viral claims Nissan didn’t just sell cars… it built a system around high-risk loans. Not performance. Not reliability. Debt. • Easier approvals than competitors • Interest rates reportedly pushed past 20% • Loans stretched to 7 YEARS to keep monthly payments looking “normal” • The higher the interest rate… the MORE that loan could be sold for • Loans bundled and flipped to investors for $4,000+ profit per deal • The car becomes secondary… the loan becomes the real product Buyers with strong credit shop for the lowest rate. Buyers with weak credit take what they can get approved for. That gap? That’s where the money is. And over time, one car kept showing up in those deals with repossessions, missed payments, “last resort” financing... The Altima. But it didn’t come free. • Higher repossessions • Owners struggling to maintain the cars • A stigma that stuck • Sales and brand perception taking a hit The strangest part? The same company behind the Nissan GT-R went from performance icon… to being tied to one of the most controversial lending reputations in the market. Is this smart business… or a system that made more money the worse people did? 📹: rohrsteam

Today Conservatives launch a new plan for young people: 1. Cut the number of places on poor value uni courses. 2. Use the savings from this to free graduates from the interest rate treadmill & deliver 100 000 more apprenticeships a year. 3. Let people keep the first £5k of tax they'd have paid on starting work. (We’d also cut stamp duty to help people get on the housing ladder.) It’s not wrong in principle to be asked to pay for some of your higher education rather than get those who didn't go to uni to pay through tax. But the current system is not working in the interests of students, taxpayers or the wider economy. Students have crushing debt that can be esp hard to clear for middle earners; the taxpayer will end up footing the bill for loans that can’t be paid; and the wider economy is not getting the skill mix it needs or a new generation of workers able to make the aspirational choices they want because they are so financially constrained. If you agree, sign our student loan petition -

Melissa Mainier, a waitress and nursing student in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, was drowning in student loans with no clear way to pay them off. One day, a regular customer named Benjamin Olewine — a 92-year-old successful businessman and philanthropist — came in as usual. After getting to know her situation, he left a $345 bill and an extraordinary tip: he offered to pay her entire nursing school tuition. Melissa was stunned and needed him to confirm it multiple times. He followed through, covering roughly $20,000 in bills. Thanks to his kindness, Melissa graduated debt-free, became a registered nurse at Pinnacle Health in Harrisburg, and later pursued her master’s — with Benjamin agreeing to help with that too.

California Democrat Congressman Ro Khanna is proposing loans to California billionaires to pay a proposed 5% wealth tax Because most of these billionaire have all their money in stocks, not cash sitting in a bank account, Democrat Ro Khanna wants them to take out loans from California to pay for the new wealth taxes they say they owe This is insanity Paying this wealth tax also forces these people to sell stocks which could means they lose majority control of their own companies Here’s an example, take Jensen Huang, Nvidia CEO - With a 5% tax bill he would owe: $9 billion - If he were to take out this 10 year loan, he would owe monthly payments of $106.7 million Total payments over 10 years $12.80 billion So he would owe $9 billion in new taxes PLUS $3.8 billion in interest payments to California California Democrats have lost their mind. Every Billionaire will leave the second this might pass

Investigation finds a contributor to rising California home prices Proposition 13 was passed which caps property tax increases at 2% per year based on the most recent purchase price But if anyone was to sell and move, they would take in a much higher tax bill “This encourages owners to stay put and not move and take on a higher tax bill. On top of that, tax laws can make it even less attractive to sell. If owners in California sell their homes, they generally pay taxes on gains more than $250,000 or $500,000 for couples. But if they hold onto their homes and pass it on to their heirs, that tax bill virtually disappears. Their heirs would only need to pay taxes on gains over the value of the home's market price on the date of the previous owner's death. When homeowners are reluctant to sell, that means fewer homes are on the market, which pushes prices higher and then serves as an incentive for other owners not to sell. One realtor calls this a negative feedback loop.”

🚨BREAKING: Colorado Democrats REJECTED a bipartisan bill and chose to protect RAP*STS over CHILDREN. HB25-1073, which would have required prison time instead of probation for rap*sts, was shut down by Democrats. Under current law, s*xual predators can receive just 10 to 20 years to life on probation. The bill sought to impose indeterminate prison sentences from 2 to 4 year in prison to life for anyone convicted of these horrific crimes against minors. DISGUSTING! As of today 70% of those convicted of s*xually assaulting a child receive PROBATION—no prison time. Of the few who are imprisoned, 73% are paroled after serving an average of just 8 years. Under current sentencing laws, no one has ever served more than 25 years for these atrocious crimes.

Iowa has a cancer problem.. Zach Lahn on Iowa's Cancer Paradox: Rural Outdoor Farmers Face Far Higher Cancer Risks Than Nevada - Despite Nevada's Top Smoking Rate and Iowa's Low Smoking & Active Lifestyle - Zach Lahn states Iowa has "the fastest rate of new cancer of anywhere in the history of human civilization." The top 10 highest-cancer counties are all rural/ag-heavy counties (not urban areas like Des Moines). In the worst counties, lifetime cancer risk is 1 in 2. - Statewide: Choosing to live in Nevada instead of Iowa gives you a 40% lower chance of getting cancer in any given year. - Worst Iowa county vs. Nevada: Up to 70% lower risk in Nevada. - Nevada has one of the lowest overall cancer rates in the U.S. - despite having the highest smoking rate of all 50 states. - Iowa has very low smoking rates (far below Nevada's), yet one of the highest cancer rates. - Lahn points out that rural Iowans/farmers spend their days outside getting physical exercise 12 months a year, Yet these same people have higher cancer rates than someone "working in a cube in Des Moines" - Farmers as a group actually have lower overall cancer rates (thanks to outdoor lifestyle, exercise, lower obesity/smoking), But they have dramatically higher rates of two specific cancers: non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and leukemia. Lahn ties these directly to chronic exposure to pesticides/chemicals from the dominant ag companies (Bayer, Corteva, Syngenta). Clip Full Interview

Donald Trump is making major changes that will ban colleges from the Federal Student Loan Program and all federal financial aid if the programs at that college don't pass the earnings test “They are putting together a new earnings threshold test that says Bachelor degree program graduates have to earn more than the median high school graduate in your state 4 years after graduation. And when it comes to grad school programs, they have to earn more than bachelor's degree graduates for that same type of field in that state within 4 years after their graduate school program. If the school program fails this test for 2 years in a row, they will lose access to federal Fi, federal student loans. And if more than 50% of the school's programs fail this test, they lose access to all types of federal financial aid programs.” Here’s what that really means Colleges can no longer have programs that do not deliver positive financial outcomes for their graduates The goal is to stop federal taxpayer subsidies via loans and grants for programs that leave graduates financially worse off or no better than if they had skipped college This is common sense legislation and a huge win for everyone

17 months ago, San Francisco stopped spending more than we can afford. The budget I proposed this week, reduces our long-term structural deficit by approximately $300 million dollars. When I came into office, City Hall was using one-time funds to cover a growing deficit and leaving the bill for someone else to pay. That wasn’t sustainable. And it wasn’t fair to the taxpayers and the people who depend on city services. Under my administration, we will not fall back on temporary fixes that force deeper cuts year after year. We didn’t tell departments to do more with less. We said: focus on what matters most to our recovery and deliver results.

And it wasn’t fair to the taxpayers and the people who depend on city services. Under my administration, we will not fall back on temporary fixes that force deeper cuts year after year. We didn’t tell departments to do more with less. We said: focus on what matters most to our recovery and deliver results.
