I actually would like to see govt. out of the student loan business. One of the reasons tuition is so damn expensive.

There should never have been interest on student loans to begin with....
Failure to repay the loans should have resulted in loss of the degree...
Charging interest on something like that is ridiculous...

The Jubilee (Hebrew: יובל yōḇel; Yiddish: yoyvl) is the year at the end of seven cycles of shmita (Sabbatical years) and, according to Biblical regulations, had a special impact on the ownership and management of land in the Land of Israel. According to the Book of Leviticus, Hebrew s***es and prisoners would be freed, debts would be forgiven, and the mercies of God would be particularly manifest.

Well, the Bible says to lend freely and not expect repayment at all. However in order to lend anything you must first own it. Our government doesn’t own the money they “lend” to students. Private people can lend as they are led by the Holy Spirit, however again our government is not private. Nor is much of it led by the Holy Spirit.
On a different level, Jesus said to render to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.
Does that clear your fog any? Do you agree? Do you really even care? Or are you just sowing seeds of hatred?
I think I know the answers but you have until you die to get it right. Better hurry, never know when this part of the ride is over. I pray that God shows you his face.

That makes sense if you are loaning the money to your daughter but students borrow money from banks. If no interest is charged what motivation would you propose for banks to loan their money for student loans when without charging interest, what is know to banks as their income, the banks will be unable to pay their property taxes, insurance, rent, utilities, employees, their own creditors, advertising, maintenance, etc.?

News flash! A lot of students are defaulting on student loans, now more than ever. Good luck getting that money back any time soon. You need a J-O-B to repay debt or well-to-do parents. Something most Americans don't have, right now.
