8:46 am
conditions that then cannot subsequently be changed by the new owner of the debt is that correct yes ok thank you. here in the u.k. the prospect of cutting the debt tranche is and selling it to private investors instantly brings to mind the disastrous mechanism of subprime loans that are shattered so many lives so many families two years ago thirty to forty percent of student loans remained unpaid today it's reached forty five percent we're close to the tipping point at forty seven percent of non collected debt the university system and its nine thousand pounds yearly tuition fee will cost more to the english states. than it did at the time of the three thousand. england seems to be engaged in a dangerous game. in the us the bang university system became widespread nearly forty years ago. today

8:49 am
political imagination of students because they're so highly and and they have to think about their future in very particular ways that are tied to their financial position and their financial survival in the future. and then movement tackles a huge market a for profit schools that have developed throughout the country in recent decades these schools do not target the elite of american students or the working classes poor families likely to believe in dreams.
8:50 am

8:51 am
even say that their education system is this way when we are supposed to be the best country in the world has been the richest country in the world but we are the richest country in the world for the rich but we're also the poorest country in the world for the poor in a way. before god knows. i mean streamline board there's a whole new category of people there. extremely more rewarded. for is almost the new rich. and sad. when i was watching the television and seen that they could make my life better if i went to their school. soon as he has of the phone was hired how are you this is
8:52 am
my name's terry winters i'm you know i'll be the one to answer any questions you have but now. so he basically asked me if i would be interested in coming out to the school and looking at the campus and seeing what programs i had to offer said that he was a graduate there that i should come check out the school when he walks through the school they have different things on the walls of jobs i could qualify for with the degree but they're not actually telling you the full details of everything and that they don't tell you that there's an arbitration clause that you can't sue the school whether individually or through a class action suit don't really know that you're getting into a predatory lending type of situation because they don't educate you to that they gloss over the financial aid it's very quick and you just initial and then you sign at the bottom. and then it was oddly he just asked you know i have
8:53 am
a couple graduates that would like to come in and speak with you and you have an issue talking to some recent graduates and in my mind i'm thinking oh that's kind of cool and i can actually talk to some people that went to the school you know she would they say about the school so young female and young male came in and for all i know it could have been the recruiters working with this recruiter. he came and they both came in and said that you know they found a job before they ever graduated the school placed them and that they're doing really well and they're not struggling paying their student loan baton life is just so much better now they have so many opportunities they can jump job a job they want a lot of these student advisers at these schools used to use on students to get them into an education. but in this in document from a for profit college if i can find that shows all the people that we're. going after welfare moms with kids relocation recent high school graduates career
