Is Student Debt Prolonging the Recession?
3
  • Numerous people have proposed that forgiving
    student loan debt would act as a fiscal stimulus,
    and a SignOn.org petition created by Robert
    Applebaum of ForgiveStudentLoanDebt.com is
    available to sign if you agree and are interested
    in sending that message to President Obama and
    Congress.
  • But there is also an argument that the nearly 1
    trillion in student loan debt is slowing down
    economic recovery, primarily by constricting the
    still struggling housing market.

  • According to Reich, purchases of new homes are
    down 77 percent from their 2005 peak, overall
    home sales are still dropping, and prices are
    still falling. And at the same time,
  • young couples are no longer buying homes
    they're renting because they're not confident
    they can get or hold jobs that will reliably
    allow them to pay a mortgage.
  • Middle-aged couples are underwater or unable to
    sell their homes at prices that allow them to
    recover their initial investments. They can't
    relocate to find employment. They can't retire.
  • The negative wealth effect of home values,
    combined with declining wages, makes it highly
    unlikely the US will enjoy a robust recovery any
    time soon."

  • There's no doubt that young people are not buying
    homes in the numbers they used to.
  • As Bloomberg Businessweek noted in a recent
    article, only 9 percent of 29- to 34-year-olds
    got a first-time mortgage from 2009 to 2011
    (compared with 17 percent 10 years earlier) and
    25- to 34-year-olds made up only 27 percent of
    all home buyers in 2011, the lowest share in the
    past decade.
  • But according to the article, it's not just the
    precarious job market that is deterring young
    couples from buying homes.
  • Student debt is preventing many young people from
    qualifying for mortgages even if they have jobs.

  • And if you or somebody you know is struggling
    with student debt, remember that there are
    programs that can help, especially with your
    Study loan.
  • We cover programs like Income-Based Repayment and
    Public Service Loan Forgiveness in depth in our
    free student debt relief webinars.
  • We'll also keep you updated on new developments
    such as President Obama's recent initiatives
    through this blog, on Twitter, and via Facebook.
