Church has a lot of money and they are all about loving people and against greed. Why don’t churches spread their wealth among poor students? It’s almost like they don’t believe their own gospel… Go figure.

Poor people take out a loan to go to a public university and pay high interest on the loan.
Rich people just pay cash.
So, because of interest, a PUBLIC university costs more for poor people than for rich people.
How exactly does that setup serve the public interest?
Let’s also not forget that when a rich person takes out a loan and finds themselves unable to pay it back, they can declare bankruptcy. Student loan interest, on the other hand, by law, is not dischargeable in bankruptcy.
Hahahahaha, freedom.
Forgive me father for I have sinned;
I’m in a Gender Studies for 16th Century Afro-American Cultures and can’t get any cash for school or my psilocybin so I looted a Lootyvigson. Its in the name father, it can’t be a sin.
It has nothing to do with the students. For those unaware, in the US, once a school reaches a certain default rate on student loans, that school looses access to all federal student assistance programs, grants, loans, etc. Student loan relief is an indirect bailout to ivey league universities, their exobatent tuition, and predatory lending practices.
Slaves.
Perhaps if students studied things that could actually earn them a living, then paying off their loans wouldn’t be such a problem. We all had student loans. But some of us were at least bright enough to see where the jobs would be when we graduated.
That’s not how science works.
I’m going to get a $200k student loan, graduate in queer gender studies and then cry about the church because the government and tax payers expect me to pay it back.
