I always thought this was absurd - if a company paid for an employee to go to school, the company could deduct that expense from its income. But a student can't deduct interest for loans he took out that got him a job? Really, it would be fair if students could deduct both the interest and the principal, as well as tuition they paid out of pocket, as a business expense. Generally I don't think the student loan situation is at all unfair to students, and actually income-based repayment is great for students. The problem is with the high tuition. But this tax treatment always felt weird. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! ... Copied to Clipboard! |
