Biden cancels $6.1 billion in loans for ex-Art Institutes students

I went to the Art Institutes. The Art Institutes were a scam school. Their lessons were out of date and teachers told us to watch Youtube to learn, they even forced students to grade other students work or they would be failed. Their employment statistics were outright lies and earning potential was straight lies. Their counselors were salesmen, not people who cared. They 100% deserved to have their schools closed down and everyone's payments refunded. They were sued multiple times for years. Our government, both parties, knew this garbage was going on for a long time and never did a damn thing about it.

All education should be free and high quality. This nation needs it.

I’m sure the recent polls have something to do with this

I was one of these students. I felt scammed but was still paying. Then I got my email yesterday. I’m so grateful!!

So the feds decided art degrees should be free... What about everybody else with college debt.... sounds unfair and unconstitutional.

I was a former student myself. It was all a scam.

Do not give the banks a penny for their bad investments!

Really disappointing there was no mention of activism. Not even one sentence mentioning Sweet v Cardona, the Debt Collective, or any history at all that went into why these loans are being cancelled.

Damn i shoulda went to a for profit art school and studied underwater basket weaving

Another one for the tax payer tab. This president is a joke.

I'd rather that money go to lowering child care costs

And yet they still can't come up with money for the wall.

Yeah! Another 0.4% ! 🙄

What about the Academy of arts that school has been shady as A.I. I’m not paying those student loans!

They were predatory! I’m with Biden on this one!

How about student loan forgiveness for over worked underpaid mental health therapists?

Who the hell is the supreme Court to decide what amount of money is too much or too little for a policy decision. THEY need to stay in their own lane.

In Mexico 🇲🇽 and other countries, either Europe college is free ,I do not understand how this happens here in the US

If we got back to taxing the top bracket again, then nobody would raise an eyebrow on any of this as we'd be so far in the black that we'd actually look like we're doing something right

Why don’t we cancel the way over inflated cost of college by guaranteeing the government backed amount to $25k a year the college wound cost so much!
