[Ugnet] Hail to Obama for the College Loans win
We Won a Robust Public Option . . . on College Loanshttp://www.truthout.org/jeff-cohen-we-won-a-robust-public-option-college-loans58048 Friday 26 March 2010 by: Jeff Cohen, t r u t h o u t | Op-Ed http://www.truthout.org/jeff-cohen-we-won-a-robust-public-option-college-loans58048 [image: photo] (Image: Lance Page / t r u t h o u t http://www.flickr.com/photos/truthout; Adapted: pmarkham http://www.flickr.com/photos/pmarkham/4208826846/, dbking http://www.flickr.com/photos/bootbearwdc/290148191/) We won! When President Barack Obama signs the health care reconciliation bill on Tuesday, we can crow about a robust public option – en route perhaps to a more inclusive, cost-effective single-payer system. Soon, private profiteers (and subsidies to them) will be sidelined, and the government will save taxpayers billions by providing service directly to Americans in need. I'm not hallucinating. We should savor this victory. Unfortunately, it's not a health care victory. Attached to the health care reconciliation bill is an unrelated college loan measure that goes in the opposite direction of health care reform. The loan measure sidelines private profiteers – the banks – and saves taxpayers money by making the government something of a single-payer which will soon be directly issuing most college loans in our country. Direct lending by the government will cut out the middleman and save taxpayers, according to the Congressional Budget Officehttp://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/26/us/politics/26loans.html, $61 BILLION OVER 10 YEARS – with $40 billion in savings being redirected to higher education in the form of more Pell grants, more aid to minority-serving colleges and more aid to lower-income graduates for paying off their student debt. What a concept! Instead of moving to subsidize a bulky private industry and its waste, profits and exorbitant executive pay (as the new health bill does by mandating that millions become new customers of corporate insurers), the college loan reform reduces bureaucracy, profit and streamlines the systehttp://www.slate.com/id/2248377/?from=rss. m. Yes, the right-wing in Congress yelled government takeoverhttp://www.commondreams.org/headline/2010/03/22-0 . And, yes, corporate lobbyists put uphttp://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/26/us/politics/26loans.html%20a%20fierce%20fight A FIERCE FIGHT to stop this common sense approach that ends years of wasteful subsidies to private banks. But Democrats in Congress stood up to them – passing a measure in the public interest that can easily be explained and justified to the public. It's a far cry from the backroom deal-making Obama and top Democrats engaged in with lobbyists as health care reform got watered down, as even a weak public option got jettisoned and as private insurers and big pharma deepened their control over the system. I want to be happy at a time like this. I keep hearing everyone from liberals to mainstream media to right-wingers hailing this health care bill as a world-historical event. Sort of like the first man walking on the Moon. To the skeptic in me, it's more like one small step for humankind, one giant leap for private insurance firms. But, today, it's great to be able to crow about some good news – college loans – where Congress put the needs of the public and students and families above the needs of private interests. *[image: Creative Commons License]http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/us/ This work by Truthout is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial 3.0 United States Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/us/ .* ___ Ugandanet mailing list Ugandanet@kym.net http://kym.net/mailman/listinfo/ugandanet UGANDANET is generously hosted by INFOCOM http://www.infocom.co.ug/ All Archives can be found at http://www.mail-archive.com/ugandanet@kym.net/ The above comments and data are owned by whoever posted them (including attachments if any).
