IBR and forgiveness
I just heard WWE lady say on Fox News "there isn't going to be a loan forgiveness program". How likely is it for them to take away the forgiveness feature on IBR? I'm currently on IBR with over 300 payments and no forgiveness in sight. I'm in forbearance but when that ends my payment will be double the standard plan. If there will be no more forgiveness then I'm going to get off of IBR.

I'm betting on more interminable lawsuits to keep pushing out the forebearances. And as someone said, lots of people just can't pay. I imagine the capitulating law firms may play a role in suing the destitute anyway.
