Some 60-year-old Americans can’t retire because of student loan debt

Have you tried walking in to the Department of Ed. and shaking the manager’s hand?

Your pull quote from the article is bullshit.

The average 62-year-old federal borrower owes $42,780 in federal educational debt, including Parent PLUS loans

Not the average baby boomer. If a 62-year-old has student loans, then they average $42.8k on their balance. Because they have probably given up on clearing that debt before they die.

Reminder of where we came from and how all this was avoidable save for deliberate right-wing nonsense: link

Oh boo hoo. These the same boomers that have raised the retirement age to 67 for anyone born after 1960? So its a tragedy if they have to work past 60 but screw every one else? Sounds like them.

It sounds like they should have spent the decades voting smarter.
