Netflix Is A Joke

Netflix Is A Joke

5 років тому

With Americans' student debt now over $1.5 trillion, Hasan looks at how the federal government turned the Department of Education into the largest bank in America in terms of loans, and examines the department's relationship with loan servicers. These private financial companies have benefitted from Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos' hands-off regulation that has made it easy for students to become trapped in debt.

Anyone with student loans or a mortgage should check out Givling. It's an app that is crowdfunding student loan debt with trivia! Each member can get up to $50,000 of their loan paid off tax free or put in an investment account. (In addition to weekly trivia prizes and 10k random drawings.) They’ve payed off 4.1 million as of today. If you join use invite code SH196048 for a free play and help another stressed out borrower stick it to Navient !

@@zhm96 the NCAA is over all college sports in America. They, the organization, make actual billions, but they have rules that forbid any college athlete from making any type of money. Basically they are millions upon millions and players only get a free scholarship, which can be taken away if they get injured or caught receiving any amount of money or favors (like a free meal) no matter how small, which is why people sometimes likened it to slavery.

Exactly. Capitalism is supposed to be about the freedom to choose the companies that offer the best service, and letting the other companies fail and get out of the market. In this case, capitalism is only 1-way: companies are free to do whatever they want, but students can't even choose which ones to get services from. Even fans of capitalism should be against this.

Thank you, Hasan, for making this depressing and frustrating topic informative and easy to understand. IMO, the US is fu$%ed. For example, I am sadly grateful my grandmother died so I could pay off my student loans. It's f-ed on so many levels. First, it means I'm privileged enough to come from a family whose grandparent had money left to give to their grandkid after they died. Second, she died due to a hospital being understaffed and unable to provide her care. They overmedicated her instead, which lead to her death, which allowed me to pay off my student loans. And on the topic of healthcare in the US being f-ed, I was hospitalized and told it would be paid for because I worked at said hospital. Three days and 30k later, I was discharged. Unable to pay off the 30k, I filed for bankruptcy (also privileged to at least have the funds to file for bankruptcy). BTW, bankruptcy does not relieve you of student loan debt. No, that stays with you and your family indefinitely. That is unless a family member passes and you can use your inheritance to pay it off. Do you see the layers of fu$%edupness that exists in the US? How are we the land of the free?

My husband and I both graduated from BYU (as a mechanical engineer and a high school physics teacher, respectively) and because BYU tuition is only about $5k per year we managed to get through without loans. My husband had a scholarship and I used a hodgepodge of methods, including one year I paid out of pocket with my childhood college savings. I am so grateful for this miracle as I am becoming more and more aware how uncommon getting through college without loans is.

@@nicolebrown6424 see tho it's in the banks interest to get them to make you owe money by selling the idea you HAVE to borrow money to get a foothold to getting the necessary nicer things including something so necessary as an education. On top of that all that , imagine your loan and everyone else's loans being collateralized into bigger lumps of money getting reinvested or re loaned to businesses or equity firms on the market. So really the consumer is paying back a loan that's been loaned several other times because....that money doesn't exist. That number you're seeing in your bank is just a placeholder for a placeholder for a placehder which is why banks make most of their money through interest, commission and financial insurance so when the bank can't hand out anymore loans or people default the insurance companies can return 20x the original defaulted amount but those people are still in default and owe money. The point is the system essentially depends on many people to fail to make their payments to keep paying interest even if they can't really afford it. all of those things existence rely on people constantly having to indebt themselves to pay the banks fees and interest to pay back a loan that pays back another loan until that money just ends up in deeper pockets investing anyways. so who's really getting held up?? That's why banks are some of THE shadiest organizations on the planet no matter where you go you can be sure a bank is going to be shady with their dealings and exploiting any and all loopholes to the max even if it costs people and makes other people money

@@renepauls7293 thing is there are a lot of jobs that need a college education to do well but do not pay well. even in the field of law, jobs like public defender do not pay well which is why the people who are public defenders are absolutely swamped with cases. this is because people who took loans to get through law school want a well paying job to pay off those loans, and public defender aint it. and public defenders are necessary because a large number of people cannot afford a lawyer. outside of law, there are jobs like social worker, for which one really ought to have a degree in child psychology before doing. people who work in mental institutions and many other jobs. there are many purposes for making college free. one is so poor people can go to college with no debt and get a job that pays well enough for them to be out of poverty, and most of those jobs require a college degree. but the other purpose is for more people to go to jobs that don't necessarily pay well but require a college degree like the ones i listed above.

It's inaccurate as there are many paths to success, but please keep in mind that this is what is pushed on them at a young age when you ask "why didn't they just not get the loans if they couldn't afford them?" They're kids who were promised it would work out and were pressured by society.

It's not a crisis. Something like 70-80% of borrowers have debt balances under 40k and despite the fact that TV shows love to trot out people with six figure balances for these stories as if they're representative of something the reality is that they only make up less than 5% of the borrower population. Student loan inconvenience would be a more appropriate label for the situation and I write that as someone that spent 12 years paying mine off.

England has SFE (Student Finance England). We can borrow for our tuition fees (£9250 a year for most courses) AND we can borrow for maintenance (i.e for rent and living costs). We don’t have to pay anything until we earn over £24,996 a year after graduation. Even then, we only pay 9% of the amount over that threshold of 25K. The interest rate is 6.3% while we study. And when we pay it back, the money comes straight out of our pay cheques. Fun fact - if our pay changes to below the threshold of 25K, we can ask for a refund. One of the biggest things is that there is only one company that deals with student loans. OH AND IT GETS WRITTEN OFF AFTER 30 YEARS.

I’m not saying that we have the greatest system ever but I’m just stating that we do get financial support and it’s a lot less scarier than America’s system

I studied marketing. I was told by my professors, proudly, that my job would be to lie to people and convince them to purchase a good or service "by any means necessary". When I asked them about "False Advertising" they told me that no one enforces it, and that it's not really a thing. Then they proceeded to teach me many of the ways that I'm allowed to lie to the public. It's so fucked up, don't trust labels, don't trust adverts, don't trust anything that isn't in fine print or spoken at 3 times the normal speed. Also the "generic" in every advert example is whatever you want it to be, doesn't have to correlate to anything in reality. Also lawyers will be the end of America, for every lawyer that does something decent there are a dozen working for the devil, and they all golf together.

You don’t need to give up your citizenship. I went to Europe and got my education at a fraction of the price. However - I learned the hard way that a lot of the top universities are just the elite’s way of getting their kids into “the system”. For a kid from Harvard, Stanford or USC - their classmates run the country after graduation. That’s really what a lot of people are paying for when they attend these things.

@@preciousgerbosch LOL. Make 200k in canada and pay 75k in income tax alone. As far as I know, my dad/other people that make 100k+ don't use 75k+ each year in public school, medical care, government services and things like city infrastructure. Add my mom, my brother and I. We don't use all of our tax money. I understand this type of thinking is negative. I appear not to care for anyone. However, my parents immigrated when I was 6 months old. My dad struggled 3 full time jobs while my mom did her medical exams while taking care of a 1.5yr old and me. If you work hard you'll get "there" and realized it's all a sham. Easier to elect Biden, not work, and get paid 2k a month from others taxes.

@@nadominhoca Don't you also have State Income tax aswell? You need to add that, plus property taxes, which depending on the State and county can be quite high. In Europe you only pay one income tax to the country where you live, not to a federal goverment and then again to a regional goverment.

As a student loan borrower I’ve been putting off watching this episode because...well, you can guess. And even just 11 minutes in, I’m getting a physical reaction from it. A tightening in my lower spine, a churning in my stomach, even a faster heart rate. Because this is scary shit. I don’t know what we have to do to make it happen but we need to change and/or destroy this system so no one else has to feel like this ever again.
