The rise of Alternative for Germany (AfD) in Thuringia reflects deep economic disparities between east and west Germany. Economic struggles, under-representation, and a sense of being left behind have fueled support for AfD. Despite trillions in spending post-reunification, wealth gaps persist. Efforts to narrow this divide have not been successful, with residents feeling disconnected from the political elite. Solutions may lie in devolution and a shift towards local infrastructure projects. The ongoing economic crisis and demographic decline in east Germany exacerbate these issues. Mainstream political parties aim to prevent AfD from gaining power, but ignoring the underlying issues could further empower the far-Right party.

Summary of Mom, 85, slapped with cash-strapped daughter’s $31K student debt because she co-signed a loan 20 years ago
#nevent1q…t55h
Co-signing a student loan can have serious consequences, as seen in the case of Rebecca and Sabrina Finch. Rebecca co-signed a loan for her daughter Sabrina, but when Sabrina fell behind on payments due to medical issues, the lender transferred the loan to Rebecca, who is now struggling to pay off the $31,000 balance at 85 years old. The article highlights the risks of co-signing a student loan, including the possibility of default and the potential for the lender to take the co-signer's home. It also notes that private student loans have less flexibility in repayment options compared to federal student loans, and that borrowers may need to apply for discharge or forgiveness if they are unable to make payments.

Bullet points of Mom, 85, slapped with cash-strapped daughter’s $31K student debt because she co-signed a loan 20 years ago
- Co-signing a student loan can lead to serious financial consequences, as seen in the case of Rebecca and Sabrina Finch, where the mother is now on the hook for her daughter's loan payments at the age of 85.
- Co-signing a loan means taking on the financial responsibility of repaying it, and if the primary borrower stops paying, the lender can turn to the co-signer for repayment.
- Private student loans have less flexibility in repayment options compared to federal student loans, and defaulting on a private loan can lead to serious consequences, including the possibility of a lien being placed on a home.
- Social Security benefits are generally protected from garnishment if you default on private student loans, but not federal student loans.
- It may be difficult to get a private student loan discharged, but in cases where the loan is truly not payable, there is a chance that a lender might write off the debt.
- Before co-signing a student loan, it's essential to weigh the potential risks and consider the consequences of defaulting on the loan.
- Lenders can take a co-signer's house if they default on the loan, but the process is costly and complicated, and a more likely scenario is for the lender to wait for the house to be sold and then get repaid from the proceeds.
- Rebecca's best bet is to apply to have her daughter's student loans discharged on the basis of her not being able to make payments, but this is a long and uncertain process.
