If as reported by Independantaustralia.net :
“Inflation declined again in April to 2.34%, making three consecutive monthly falls and nine months within the Reserve Bank’s optimum band between 2% and 3%. That’s the best run since monthly records have been kept.

Core inflation was 2.8%, within the optimum band for the fifth consecutive month. Interest rates were cut again in May to 3.85%, with further reductions likely soon.”

WHY then, pray tell, has my #HELP debt increased by 3.2% in on 01Jun25?
Is #StudentDebt meant to turn a #Proffit ?

WTF? I can’t wait to find out what seemingly arbitrary #CPI increase my #pension will deserve this new financial year.

#StudentDebt

If you don't even talk about principal vs. interest, you shouldn't be talking about whether the "loan" still needs to be paid back. If you don't know what the interest rate is, you don't know if a loan is predatory.

But hey.

"We just got wind of Republicans' higher education bill text for reconciliation. We skimmed it. It's the most dangerous Higher-Ed bill in history.

It strips the Dept of Ed of virtually every authority to CXL student debt. Eliminates every repayment program. Abolishes subsidized loans."
-Debt Collective

"The judge compared the administration’s dismantling of the agency to when his kids ‘would throw a party at the house.'"

@maggiejk I’ve paid more than I borrowed and I’m on track to have my student loans paid off when I’m 74! Dept of Education are loan sharks ripping off working people like nurses, teachers, social workers, secretaries, and anybody else who dared to go to college without being born rich. #oligarchy #StudentDebt #WorkingPoor

@helgariverainsurance It’s incredibly cruel to squeeze struggling families now when Trump has gutted retirement savings and is making basic food and clothing unaffordable. #StudentDebt

Trump is taking the next big step in his anti-working class agenda by forcing millions of people to resume student loan payments. But the debt crisis was caused by both corporate parties.

The politicians, including the Biden administration, have done nothing about it – not because they can’t, but because they choose not to.
