borrower. it s a game-changer. we re also fixing what is called this has been the bane driving me crazy when i was out of office. this program forgives student loans to encourage students with loans if they go into public service. think of the millions that are. public school teachers. local police officers, workers at local charities, members of the military and national guard. think of the folks that work for federal, state, local governments, responding to national disasters. all of the firefighters and cops. the program is designed so that if you serve in one of these jobs you ll be able to actively assist whether you do and make your loan payments for ten years even if it s not consecutive years. your remaining balance will be completely forgiven. it s a great idea, but the program is a mess. it s so inefficient and complicated. too many people give up. think of a service member, deferring their student loan payment while they re deployed. the system is so restricted t
colleges, you see a stark difference there. the average should be $10,000 instead of the 20,000 on average that families pay today. the price of tuition has moved almost lock step with the federal loan expansion. that s why we see this well above inflation. one study from the federal reserve bank of new york finds the average tuition increase associated with the expansion of student loans with as much as 60 cents per dollar. if this is granted, we know what happens next. for the colleges, they don t really have a good inseptemberive to lower their prices here because they know that students can simply turn to the student loan system to borrow more money as they increase their prices. so again, this doesn t loan forgiveness doesn t really address the increase in college prices. doesn t give universities a good incentive to lower their prices. yet the white house is
taxpayer with the bill. he s thinking about canceling up to $10,000 with an executive order which would cost the government over $300 million. mike rowe is here to react, he s got a brand-new season of how america works. so good that my advice help to your career early on, mike. the thing that drives me crazy that makes me so mad is that no one is thinking about this problem because of the words they use. forgiveness doesn t tell you where the money is coming from. it should be called soft. i will forgive it come i would happily forgive alone, but you still have to pay it back. this makes me crazy. my foundation focuses on work ethic scholarships and we were at those scholarships to people who affirmatively do not want to purchase a four-year degree peer they want to be trained. plumbers, pipe fitters, electricians, so forth. we assisted 1400 people, give it
says sin is a bipartisan problem. republicans in, democrats in, we all need forgiveness but we need to understand forgiveness doesn t always remove consequences. the severity of consequences depends on the severity of intent and frequency. putting on blackface in 1984 is wrong but not as horrific as sexual assault in 2004. we can t apply the same definitely rule in politics to everyone. i think about the saying he who refuses to forgive destroys the bridge he must travel one day. if we want to be forgiven and i know i do we need to be ready to express that. humans and check was a list sexual assault against the lieutenant governor, justin fairfax. let s hear from him monday. what i know is the truth is on our side. i read the bible and this
human being but forgiveness doesn t mean forget what happened. if something is serious and it is necessary to take counter-measures, you have to take counter-measures. the bin laden question came up yesterday during his appearance at the university of southern california. we are a couple of minutes away from the blitzer in the situation room. wolf, you are going to hear from the chair of the homeland security, peter king. and i remember him speaking yesterday. he s seen the pictures and he says they should have been released? he says they should have been released. i m not so sure he s seen the pictures. i don t think he s physically actually seen the pictures. but, you know, he respects the president and says, this is a decision that the commander in chief has to make and he s not going to criticize the president on this. he does disagree with the white house on another sensitive issue, whether or not the enhanced interrogation
