  • Americans owe $1.3 trillion in student loans --second only to home mortgages. The rise in student loan borrowing is tied to skyrocketing tuition rates, which are up 226% since 1980. VICE reports from America's college campuses to explore how a spigot of easy money from the federal government is jacking up the cost of higher education and even threatening our international competitiveness.
    For years, medical science was powerless against one of the most of severe intestinal infections. But a new treatment shows tremendous promise -- if patients aren't too squeamish to try it. Fecal transplants use the stool from a healthy person to repopulate life-sustaining bacteria in the colon of the patient. This technique is so effective that researchers are testing its potential to treat disorders far beyond the digestive tract, pointing to breakthrough treatments for a broad range of the most stubborn diseases. VICE reports from the labs and lavatories where this medical revolution is taking place.

    158k in debt to be a teacher? You can't act like you didn't know exactly what you were doing taking out excessive loans

      You’re right that she made a bad choice, but that’s not the end of the story. Teachers are a necessity. Yeah, it’s technically a little stupid to get a degree in something where you’ll never be able to pay off your debts, but it’s stupid on a grand scale for the cost to become a teacher to be far more expensive than a teacher would be able to afford in the first place. If it becomes unaffordable to become a teacher, we either need to import all of our teachers, or accept less rigorous standards for education during a time where the United States is already starting to fall behind.

    • @karenvanzant1621
      @karenvanzant1621 5 лет назад +1

      Correct, Teachers and social workers should not be paying the same cost as someone taking business, law, engineering or even medical cost. There degrees just are not worth it.

  • @JohnSmith-td7hd

    Can we talk about textbooks, though? Like, a 200 dollar nursing textbook, or a 125 dollar calculus textbook? These are just copy-and-pasted together from already existing sources of information. There's nothing new in these books, and a book is a centuries old technology. There needs to be a cap on the price of a textbook. I'd say the max should be $50, and that's being very generous.

    • @BlackUnite
      @BlackUnite 6 лет назад +6

      Truth spoken. Textbooks almost mess up the good deal you get by attending community college. $191 for a class, but $156 for the textbook for the class. Appreciate all professors who don't require you to get the textbook.

    • @karenvanzant1621
      @karenvanzant1621 5 лет назад

      But a lot of the professors write these book, or college claim them to be specific to their program. Therefore, they make more money on top of tuition.

  • @AvanClaer
    @AvanClaer 6 лет назад +17

    Student loans are primarily gained because simple lack of knowledge. You can go to your local community college and do very well for a fraction of the cost. If you work hard and your grades are good enough you could then transfer to a 4 year university.
    Students are rarely taught this in High School and feel the pressure to jump straight into college.

  • @Melissa0774
    @Melissa0774 6 лет назад +86

    I think it's time for the community colleges to start offering 4 year degrees with the second two years at the same price as the first two. They're going to have to do it by cutting half of their programs. They have a lot of bullshit programs they could stand to cut. Degrees get inflated over time like money. I think we're at the point where an A.A degree is basically a glorified high school diploma.
    Edit: I said they have a lot of bullshit programs they could stand to cut. Meaning, I think they should get rid of all the worthless degrees and focus on the ones that are in demand. Want to use government money to go to college? Fine, but you should have to pick from a list of degrees in fields where it's easy to find a job once you get qualified.

      Make it better.
      How about free tuition, at least to the students who are bright enough to qualify for it?
      It's an investment to the future society.
      Most developed countries have them, why not in US?

      Never thought anybody came with that idea already?
      Yep, people tried that many times in the history and failed.
      How it failed?
      By creating an inequality. Richs get super rich, poors get super poor.
      Inequality is the biggest killer of the economy
      It happened in Rome then collapsed, it happened before 1929 in US then the great depression took place.
      If you do't learn the history, the history repeats.... endlessly.

      I say, charge tuition, by how much the market is offering at the time of attending school. Social workers and teachers should not have to pay the same tuition cost of say an business or engineering degree, since those professions pay so much more in the long run

    How to stay out of student loan scams:
    1. Go to school for something useful and not some stupid shit like English, Art History or Journalism
    2. Either go somewhere cheap or on a scholarship, paying $3k instead of paying $30k a year is a way better deal
    3. It really does not matter where you go to school, I go to a CUNY school for $5200 a year while some of my friends go to school for $62000, however I probably have a better chance at getting a job and I only owe $7200 in loans while some of my friends go to a school with no connections and will come out with a mortgage instead of a student loan.
    4. Learning a trade shouldn’t be looked down upon, they’ll probably make more money than you and will always have a job.
    5. Avoid for-profit colleges like the plague.
    6. There’s nothing wrong with state schools, at all, no matter what your friends and family say.
    7. Start paying interest off while your in school, it doesn’t cost much and you’ll save way more in the long run.
    8. If you have no clue what you wanna do after your sophomore year, save everyone some trouble and take some time off, find yourself on your own time, not on a loan.

    • @redarrowhead2
      @redarrowhead2 6 лет назад +1

      Yea, I finished a CUNY and graduated debt free. Then went for a Master's and got a job paying $72k and within a year paid off my college debt. But really I find it's a crap-shoot a lot of the time when picking a field and trying to get a good job. For instance, there are certain fields, not all, with great jobs in tech but they're inundated with visa workers making it harder for young Americans to actually get started; I see it first-hand. Hell, I got interviewed many times by people who were clearly foreign born by their thick accent. Even if you do everything right you can still get shafted.

    To the people who are so apt to blame the students for going to college.
    - How old are you?
    - When did you go to college?
    - When was the last time you were in the active deployment hunt?
    - Last time you experienced the job market?
    - What do you currently do for work?
    - What college did you attend/did you attend?
    - What year did you graduate if you did?
    - What was your field of study if you did?

      I'm 35 and went straight into the Navy as a Nuclear Machinist Mate.
      Never been out of a job for longer than 6 weeks. Last time I was looking for a job was 2008 when I took over a Truck and motorcoach shop. I left that for my current job where I'm a Supervisor for a major manufacturer.
      No college.
      People that work for me earn between $23-29 per hour and get 48 hours per week. MOST of them haven't gone to college. Those that did went to a VoTech and got a 2 year certificate.

    While student loans increasingly became a national crisis, more and more colleges and universities are hiring contingent faculties to teach their classes. Basically, students are paying more for an education of lesser quality because more and more of their instructors don't get paid enough and have to take on multiple classes to have a living wage. Meanwhile, decrease in funding from the states means that the price of attendance is shifting from a public issue to an individual issue. The stories in some elite institutions, however, could look very different.

    Growing up I saw the scam that was college. I did a semester at community college. After hearing the repetitive talk of "You need a degree to get anywhere" and not wanting to feel like a loser for not following my classmate to 'higher education'. Despite my better judgment I enrolled into ITT-Tech. It was the biggest reassurance of my initial thoughts. This was all a fucking joke. I was lucky enough to accept it and all the things I learned were on my own ability. I was fortunate enough to see this and landed a job by skills that we're not taught there. For others, they are fighting to pay a loan for piece of paper that means NOTHING! I'm currently Fighting my ITT-Tech loan now. Wish me the most fucking luck you can.

      yea, you can also get certifications (e.g. cisco network certs) and be a technician making $90k before you're 20. Problem is people get funneled into colleges and don't know a thing about trade schools. It's not their fault really.

Going to spend 100k getting bachelor's degree in communications? Well then enjoy your debt and job as a barista but please don't complain to me when I'm getting my morning coffee.

    I think debt is fine for going to college, as long as you only accrue less than your expected starting salary.
    Example: If you think you'll make 40k starting out, don't get any more than 40k in debt during school. Same if you're going to make 100k starting out or 200k etc.

    • @themightykyuss

      By that logic, no one should go to medical school, ever. The average in-state tuition debt at graduation is like $200,000 in my state. And you make nowhere near that much after graduating until you complete residency, which can last anywhere from 3 - 7+ years! Just saying :)

    • @100Mmore
      @100Mmore 6 лет назад

      You got a point, but my point wasn't supposed to apply towards professional degrees. Since you're likely to make decent money out of school (80-90k min) then can get all the way up to 200k, then 400k or more if you're a good surgeon.

    Here's the overall student loan/debt system the older people have left behind for us (the presumed "leaders of the future"):
    1. go to college or university (because everybody told you to all your life)
    2. get a student loan (because you or your parents aren't rich enough to pay)
    3. graduate with degree & student debt
    4. need to find a job right after graduating
    5. nobody will hire you because you don't have experience or 20ish certificates they're looking for in applicants BECAUSE YOU WERE TOO BUSY EARNING YOUR FUCKING DEGREE TO DO ANYTHING ELSE
    6. get shitty job with shitty pay instead
    7. spend the rest of life barely getting by while paying off student debt
    This is obviously not sustainable, but don't count on that to help. As long as the lenders, bankers and for-profit colleges profit off of it, this system will continue. It will get worse and worse. Tuition will rise more, interest rates will skyrocket, and lenders will profit even greater. It'll go from $1.3 trillion total debt to $5 trillion in the next 20ish years. Okay, I might exaggerate that prediction, but the point is that there shouldn't be an amount in the first place, let alone in the TRILLIONS!! The lenders are PROUD of this rotten system and they will never change it. The only things that could cause a significant change are either a disaster (economic, natural, etc.) that tears it all down or the world turns into pre-1900s where only the wealthiest people could afford education while everybody else work as peasants. This is a disgrace to even the concept of education.

    I finished a Master's with 23k in debt from a top 100 school and got a job paying 72k before I finished with no relevant work experience. No reason to have 160k debt when planning things out wisely. I was lucky to go to a cheap public school for my Bachelor's. Having said that, degrees aren't always worth it. They're good to have if you leave with minimum debt and finish quickly and plan to work for the next 40+ years, but you can live a very successful life without them. I know having my degrees allows me access to the jobs I want to work on, but there are plenty of jobs out there that can pay as well or possibly even better without degrees.

    All public school teachers qualify for PSLF so their complaints about student loans are generally unfounded because after paying the minimum, the federal government forgives all SU and SS loans. Why take out $158k for school anyway?! There's no way her local state college cost even a quarter of that.

    It is true that college isn't what it was like back then where you have college degree = a job (stable, well pay). But it still applies still today just not that much. Of course some people would tell you to get into the trading school, but even then that doesn't solve anything and really just saturate the field of trading. This problem isn't straight forward and is complicated to solve.

    AA degree should be offered to high school students with good state standardized test scores and grades, starting in their sophomore year. That way students are motivated at a younger age to finish college and even pursue higher degrees with their first two years finished already before they specialize in degree program.

    Once again, nobody talks about why people are going to college. "Don't go to college if you can't afford it" say the people in the comment section. You might as well just tell people "Be happy with your minimum wage service job and don't attempt to make your life any better". Go look at job openings. If you want anything decent you need a degree, that's why everybody is going to college. Colleges haven't adjusted to the times and many of them are taking advantage of people. The days when you could get a job to support a family right out of highschool and work there for 50 years on good pay is over. It's long gone and the people in charge better wake the fuck up and realize what is going on before this gets any more out of hand. But knowing our government, they won't do that. Democrats and Republicans will probably fight over what to do for a few decades, like anything else. The problem will balloon out of proportion, in 40 years all the choices suck and we're fucked no matter what we do.

      Make bare minimum at a job. "If you want to make more money go to school and better yourself for a better job.".
      Go into debt for said schooling. "You fucking idiot. Why would you go into debt?!".
      There are SO many people looking for jobs in my town and almost nothing exists here past the $10-$11 range for the first five years. With so many looking businesses can ask for whatever qualifications they please. There was one that wanted a degree, didn't matter in what, to be hired as a desk jockey--a secretary.
      You can't go to college because you can't afford the debt, you can't afford to turn down any job, so you wind up working two or more in a low paying sector leaving you no time for school anyway, and you can't afford to move to a better market because you have no money. Vicious cycle.
