FORGIVE CERTAIN STUDENT LOANS. STOP CREATING FINANCIAL HARDSHIPS ON THE ALREADY INDIGENT SENIOR CITIZENS WHO CAN LEAST AFFORD TO REPAY.
Why is this important?
I've had a student loan since 1989. Due to school bankruptcy the schooling was interrupted: finished at another school, but without any benefit of placement. I have never worked in this field as a result and never netted a thin dime. Due to overwhelming circumstances I been able to pay very little, and the interest has grown exponentially. Now I'm retired on Social Security and DOE has taken a federal offset from my benefits to pay the loan. This works a real hardship with less than 900 to live on.
