"Beginning next year, college students’ monthly payments will be limited to 10 percent of their discretionary income, and all loans will be forgiven after 20 years."

What the heck is this? 10% of their discretionary income for 20 years? These borrowers would be lucky to pay back 10% of what they borrow by then!

“discretionary income”

who says what is “discretionary”? is that before or after the BMW payment, Mortgage payment, full package cable bill, cell phone bill????

I think it’s the ones way of saying take all the college debt you want on the governments dime, but don’t worry. you will NEVER have to pay it back.

Define:discretionary income

After finding that Obammy's definition of rich is a moving target....it's a legitimate question.
