My argument is two fold.

  1. The loan that were taken were a choice. It's all in black and white what the loan consists of. If you choose to take one, it's your responsibility alone to repay. If your degree is in underwater basket weaving ..still your responsibility.

  2. It is statistically proven that educated people earn more than uneducated. Because of this, as their income grows, they can afford to pay back the loans they choose to take.

If someone opted to take out a loan they can't pay back that is their poor judgement, and not the responsibility of society to care for them. They literally signed a document of their own free will. It's the same for everyone, educated and uneducated alike.

They will earn more because of their college education , hence moving forward economically and should be able to pay for the loans they readily accepted. I think we should bail out those that actually need it, not those that not only willingly put themselves in that situation and now, for whatever reason feel as though they don't have to accept financial responsibility.

I'll assume based on your rhetoric you are one of the ones that owe.

I'm glad I don't get it on that level. Hopefully I never will.

Getting that high is why it's not federally legal.

It's a sad story. But I don't think money from the Treasury should pay someone's bills for up to a year. Our government handles money like an impulsive 6 year old.

This is really disturbing. People in general are awful, that's my take away.

I can't see AOC as president. I feel like she's the face of the far left. She will probably better serve her party there.

Sure I did...then expanded on what they are doing, joking that they have the right to limit their customer base, and the $ it brings if they choose to. Doesn't sound like good business to me, but hey, their choice.

There are fucked up conservatives and liberals. I still believe the majority of people fall somewhere in between.
