So.. if you make your payments small enough, stretch it over 10 years... you too can pocket up to a cool 45,520 dollars. Sweet.

All in the name of stimulating the current economy.. giving away future dollars. Brilliant.

Can you have your student loans forgiven after 10 years?

Representative Hansen Clarke of Michigan introduced The Student Loan Forgiveness Act of 2012 (H.R. 4170) this month with the aims to “make student loan repayment both simple and fair,” according to the congressman and you may be able to have student loans forgiven if you have been paying for 10 years.

For some, the forgiveness would be instant (those paying 10 years and meeting other criteria) and the hope is the money would be used to help stimulate the economy.

At my current payment schedule, I'm looking at 12 more years. Should I qualify for this or you being a smartass?

Wait, if our national debt is $15,568,065,521,254 how can we pay off student loans?

My point is.. why sell out tomorrow (future students getting their loans eliminated) for the sake of a minor boost to the economy now.

alright there is hope for my kids. But since they have not started yet the govt will come to their senses (snerk) and abandon the program when they get to year 9.

And to the morons who keep voting for them.

I am hereby adding Wade Rule #63:
It is impossible to overestimate the stupidity of "solutions" that politicians will find.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing
