Relief for Student Debtors Editorial

Three cheers for the New York Times and its recognition that there is no reason to extend special protections to private lenders of student loans!  The Times recently published an insightful editorial calling attention to problems associated with expensive private student loans and the "undeserved advantage" private student loan lenders currently enjoy over other issuers of unsecured credit.

I support the pending bills sponsored by Senator Dick Durbin, Democrat of Illinois, and Representative Steve Cohen, Democrat of Tennessee, that would eliminate these unfair protections for private student loan lenders.
