@thedailyauspodcast: What do you think should be done to fix the current HECS system? Listen to the full interview with Greg Jericho, Chief Exonomist at the Australia Institute, wherever you get your podcasts #aus #news #hecs #uni #hecsdebt #studentloans
Are loans give the banks on the same interest or indexation as hex?

Why is no one recommending abolishing student debt.

at least take out money paid over the current financial year before indexation

So if the government decide next year to inflate the currency by 100% they can depreciate our savings by a factor of half and double our debt. Brilliant.

Lachlan :
At least raise the repayment threshold to where it was when HECS started and reduce or remove indexation. We already have a skills shortage, HECS is making it worse and driving inequality.

1 year pause only helps todays gen. What about those planning families, or choosing not to study bcoz of the price, or those in huge debt. They’ll still be struggling next year.

They could also only make HECs applicable to certain degree types to stop people getting degrees in something that wont help.

The fix is easy, compile a list of Australians that do not want to be under HECS. Sell their debt to a commercial Bank so they don't have to endure indexation anymore.

There needs to be some clause for permanent disabilities/medical conditions that then occur that proclude ability to ever pay it back.

Can we cap indexation on excise taxes(petrol, alcohol) and toll roads? Surely we can look at a longer term view on indexation to flatten the impact
