From the post:

>More than seven million borrowers may soon see their student loan payments skyrocket as the Education Department implements a settlement agreement that ends the SAVE plan. Last month, the Trump administration entered into a settlement agreement with the state of Missouri and other GOP-led states that had brought a legal challenge over the SAVE plan, a Biden-era repayment program that offered reduced payments and fast-tracked student loan forgiveness. That settlement is still pending court approval, but once it is finalized, millions of borrowers with student loans enrolled in SAVE who have been in a no-payment forbearance for more than a year will likely be forced back into repayment.

Yah. Got into it with someone here about that who was taking the non-payment side. I mean, I understand, those loans can be predatory, but as you said. They didn't even attempt to pay anything expecting someone else to pick up the tab and clean the mess. If you don't understand what the word "loan" means by the time you're 18, you probably shouldn't be going to college.

I know a few people who had some loans and hit them hard during that time. Paid them long ago, free and clear no interest or bullshit.
