What’s in the student loan part? Is it the same stuff he mentioned in the state of the union address, i.e. 10% of income, 20 years max, 10 years for gov’t workers, etc.?

My understanding is there will be no loans for students from the banks? Simple as that. If Im wrong, someone please advise? Employers aiding in education and payback being work etc.

Nothing. They changed the rules to a simple majority vote.

Yea, but could it go further like telling us what career to go into? Like physicians maybe? ice skaters, etc.

my suspicion is they will say you have to do “x” years of community service before you can qualify.
