What are you talking about? This is just like paying them off before, but you do it with money that wasn't taxed by the government. You can just take whatever you would have paid towards student loans and put that much into your 401k. Since you're not being taxed on that subtraction, you still get about 1/3 of your student loan payment added to your actual paycheck (though that will be taxed so 1/4 instead).

>but you'll have 30k less in your 401k!
And 40k more in your bank account, because you had to pay that anyway, but now you pay it without also paying tax on that 30k when you earn it.

>> No.16475588

>>16475195
Seems like the groundwork for having the student loan and the 401k tied together.

>>16475495
Tax exempt student loan repayment using the savings of the previous generation which will likely be written into law as a necessity.

E.g.
> Student loan occurs
> 401k is automatically counted towards paying off the student loan
> 401k is used to cover the cost of the student loan in its entirety
> Average retirement age increases

>> No.16475653

>>16475195
Yes goy pay for your useless degree with your retirement savings. All they have to do to fix student debt is allow it to be covered under bankruptcy laws like other debt but the bank jews own congress so it will never happen.

Different anon, but put bluntly;
> First they introduce the concept of paying for student loans via the 401k
> Eventually they'll introduce the law of paying for your student loans via the 401k.

So rather than the option to use your 401k to help pay off student loans, suddenly it becomes you being forced to pay your student loans.

Now, imagine you are a parent who disapproves of the decision made by your kid to get into student loan debt. You could and likely will be required to pay the student loan they have with your 401k.

Hadn't concerned that, and now that I think about it it's just giving Administrations another way to hide costs. As long as people can afford their fake inflated prices, the prices will continue to rise.

They see it as a hidden tax or some shit. Or maybe they just don't like people planning for the future.

That's a good point. This is more like a backdoor workaround to allow creditors access to tax advantaged accounts.

*incentivizing people who may not even have a 401K to open one for the ability to pay off the loans with tax free money while at the same time funneling money, which was previously on the sidelines into equities and bonds. This is a backhanded way of pumping the stock market.

There was a US party that claimed everything was made better when the rich made huge profits from it. Even education.
