    I'm pretty sure lenders aren't demanding students' college education as collateral to secure repayment.https://twitter.com/sensanders/status/680789930482778113 …

    You have families out there paying 6, 8, 10 percent on student debt but you can refinance your homes at 3 percent. What sense is that?

        @justinamash you do realize that they will garnish future wages if you default on your student loans. They are very secure.

        @piker8 @justinamash wage garnishment comes nowhere close to the kind of security a mortgage can, lump sum realization just for a start.

        @JeffEFrazier @justinamash sure, the bank doesn't get a great asset that they can then sell, but it's a pretty stiff penalty for default

        @piker8 @justinamash it massively hurts the borrow and does very little to compensate the lender. Unsecured debt is a bad deal all around.

        @JeffEFrazier @justinamash gotcha. My loans in the mid '90's had rates were about 3%. Seems like it's gotten way out of hand since then.

        @piker8 @justinamash College has become a more risky investment, it's the equipment of a HS Diploma, and nowhere near a job guarantee.

        @piker8 @justinamash supposed to say "equivalent" but some degrees equip students for the work force as much as a HS Diploma used tk

        @JeffEFrazier yeah, you're right. Especially with the influx of all these new online colleges. The whole thing is a money making racket.

        @nomaas @justinamash which are in now way guaranteed to come anywhere close to the loan ammounts, and can't be realized in lump sums.

        @nomaas @justinamash true, but we can't pretend they are as secure as mortgages, as Sanders implied. Truth > Politics no matter what

        @Rick_Geissal @justinamash it's not about human v inhuman, interest rates follow the risk assumed by the lender of not getting $ back.
