Different horses

They're not trying to sell the same horse on the student loan reforms.

Student loan changes with the health care bill removed (or set into motion the process of removing) the middle man from FEDERAL student loans.

This one holds schools accountable for putting disadvantaged students at an even worse disadvantage when they finish school.

And this isn't the last change needed. There's still 1 more piece of it missing.

Students that got saddled with debt are still stuck with it, at least from the private lender portion of it. If we have bankruptcy laws changed so that at least private student loans can be claimed on Bankruptcy, it would fix it so that us students can finally be human again.

I say this with over 85k in private student loans ruining my life for a program I didn't get to finish.

Also, your right-wing is showing.
