PAYE being extended to all borrowers (not flame)
Poast new message in this thread
Date: December 19th, 2013 11:22 AM Author: Hairraiser sneaky criminal telephone As noted above, the Administration’s FY 2014 student loan budget proposes to extend the President’s Pay As You Earn (PAYE) Repayment initiative to all qualified borrowers.
The CCRAA of 2007 established the Income-Based Repayment (IBR) plan, which capped monthly loan repayments to help make them affordable based on borrowers’ income and family size. All Stafford, Grad PLUS, and Consolidation Loans made under either the Direct Loan or Federal Family Education Loan programs are eligible. Non-Federal loans, loans currently in default, and Parent PLUS Loans are not eligible for the IBR plan. The IBR program lowers monthly payments for borrowers who have high loan debt and modest incomes, but it may increase the length of the loan repayment period, accruing more interest over the life of the loan. Under CCRAA, monthly payment amounts under IBR were set at 15 percent of a borrower’s discretionary income, can never be more than the amount required under the 10-year standard repayment plan, and any outstanding balances remaining after 25 years of IBR repayments are forgiven.
To further ensure that student debts are manageable, in 2010, SAFRA reduced monthly payments in IBR from 15 percent to 10 percent, and reduced the maximum length of repayment from 25 years to 20 years, after which any remaining balance is forgiven. SAFRA makes these more generous benefits available for new borrowers beginning July 1, 2014. In October 2011, the Administration announced an initiative—Pay As You Earn—to accelerate these features for qualified borrowers who were new borrowers as of October 1, 2007, and had received a Direct Loan disbursement on or after October 1, 2011. Qualified borrowers could apply to participate starting in December 2012.
The Budget proposes to extend this PAYE plan, starting in FY 2014, to all qualified borrowers regardless of when borrowers obtained their loans, or became new borrowers, thereby harmonizing various income-based repayment options available to borrowers.

The amount outstanding on education loans is now greater than credit card debt. Now we have to give a giant handout to idiots who didn't understand how compounding interest works? Anyway, the President's budget will never pass the House. Extending Paye is a bargaining chip that will quickly be traded away so that spending won't be cut for a constituency that actually votes (olds).

|
Date: December 19th, 2013 1:44 PM Author: Hairraiser sneaky criminal telephone well, my opinion is that this plan is needed in the short run to allow people to go to graduate school.
this also needs to be coupled with reduced federal funding to certain/all schools based on their allocation of costs, expected student outcome, and other factors. then, once schools don't receive enough federal student loans dollars, tuition costs will eventually go down and plans like PAYE may not be necessary.
The problem as it stands now is that grad school is unaffordable for all but the already rich, and students shouldn't be kept out just because they aren't rich. This is why PAYE is currently necessary. They gov't fubared the system, which is what led to PAYE being necessary.
I agree that keeping it as an ongoing plan, without more, only encourages bad behavior from schools. Fed gov't needs to set up stringent conditions on continued receipt of student loan dollars and/or set certain limits on tuition. Then they could still keep PAYE, but then costs would/should remain relatively constant. Right now, there's still no incentive to keep costs down. |

|
Date: December 19th, 2013 2:25 PM Author: clear really tough guy Let's not make this a big debate fellas.
I think the PAYE supporters can acknowledge that this policy will cause tuition to keep going up, enrich useless boomer academics, and incentivize people to waste time, money and resources on useless education. It's not ideal. It would be better if tuition was like 10k and we could pay for it with a summer job like boomers did. A better solution to that end would be to stop loans altogether and allow bankruptcy, forcing higher education to offer degrees that people can actually pay for.
On the other hand PAYE haters should realize that the current situation demands a different approach in the short term. The government fucked everyone over by offering loans and enabling tuition to be so high. Law schools fucked people over by lying. The market fucked over T14 grads who went from 80% biglaw to 40%. You can't make debtors pay money that they don't have. In any other segment of lending, everyone would declare bankruptcy on their 200k debt. For thousands of years, bankruptcy has been considered a sound economic and social practice. No entity should be going around making idiotic loans that don't make sense--if you do that, expect to take a hit. However, suddenly allowing bankruptcy may seem like an unfair windfall in this case, so with PAYE you are still making them pay for 20 years. |

Date: December 19th, 2013 3:39 PM Author: curious station The budget deal that passed in the Senate merely set the final budget number. It was lower (by about 10%) than what the final number in the administration's budget and higher than Ryan's budget. Thus, there will have to be things that the Dems cut out of their budget in order to reach the agreed upon number.
"The budget agreement only solves part of the problem. While it sets spending levels, it doesn't actually allocate the money and doesn't specify how the money can be spent. That battle will begin immediately.
Appropriations Committee members must agree before January 15 -- the deadline set by Congress in October for a new spending plan to be in place -- on how to divvy up the money.
For instance, Republicans will want more money for the military. Democrats will want more money for Head Start programs."

Date: December 19th, 2013 3:41 PM Author: dashing yellow tanning salon Republicans are warning that they will not tolerate any increase in funding for administering the troubled healthcare program.
Democrats hope to maintain or add small amounts of money for the program they say will provide insurance for millions of previously uninsured people.
As is the case with all spending bills in a deeply divided Congress, there are plenty of other disagreements besides the Obamacare funding level.
Among the most difficult will be money for the Internal Revenue Service, the nation's tax collector; funds for western wildfire fighting and for the Yucca Mountain, Nevada, nuclear waste repository.
Separate battles also could be waged over policy proposals that House Republican leaders are likely to attach to the funding bill.
These could include forcing the Obama administration to approve a controversial Keystone oil pipeline from Canada to the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.
There also could be moves to stop the Environmental Protection Agency from enforcing carbon emissions regulations that the coal industry hates and to block federal money for building a California high-speed train.

Date: December 27th, 2013 12:58 PM Author: Bipolar grizzly address ceo not necessarily - there's a calculus to be done on the extent that paye will encourage new borrowers/create new demand, how new demand will impact tuition, the rates the new borrowers will get vs lending opportunity cost, the expected default/forgiveness rate and amounts of new borrowers given expected tuition, the expected conversion rate of old borrowers to paye, the loss of revenue from converted old borrowers, and the expected default/forgiveness rate and amount of old pre-2007 borrowers who wont default if given paye but otherwise would default if not given paye.
