I don’t get all these people with so much student debt, decades late. I graduated in the late 80’s with 25k in student debt, and had it paid off in 8 years. I lived frugally and focused on getting out of debt. I think it’s just a mindset. Some circumstances, yes. But focus, people.

She could always take a pay cut to qualify for Biden-Bucks.
$230K? It’s hard to find good but affordable indoctrination these days.
Shes probably making 300-500k a year, she can pay it back.
They need to sue their college for instilling this thought process. Who knows, they might get damages too.
F**k this entitled racist. She knowingly incurred the debt; she should pay it off. PERIOD!! Further, anyone hiring people should be asking candidates to prove that they’ve paid or are paying off their student loan. It is an indicator of personal responsibility.
SMH, these types of people used to have a hard time getting a job, and if they were teaching your children they would be fired on the spot.
it's over for this country, the time to throw these onerous usurping devil's off of public funds and public trust is past due!
Her excuses keep going back to black this, black that, black whatever.
I hope the school board tosses her for this massively misguided missive.
My son has been working since he got out of high school 3 years ago. He has zero debt and has just started going back to school to become a nurse. We told him he could live with us rent-free as he’s going to school. He will work part time to have some gas and other spending money, but he built himself a nice savings during his working time.
I’m thinking he’ll come out of his schooling with very little debt and will have paid for it on his own. He has no desire to let the government pay for it.
The problem is that every kid tries to get pushed into college immediately. It’s not for everyone.
You want justice? Sell both of your kidneys and your liver and pay back the money you owe!!!
Used to be the Democrats would ease off the gas pedal when they realized their car was headed toward a cliff.
“… For years, I believed my student loan debt was the result of my personal failings—a lie that countless borrowers, particularly those who are Black or from poor and working-class families, come to internalize.…”

She was right before and then started to delude herself as her desire to not pay her debts increased. Her sense of entitlement is now BOUNDLESS!
wow. what is the interest rate? She must have never made a payment.
She must have went on some hell of a lot of luxurious Spring, Fall and Christmas breaks.
$230,000 in debt???
Why would anyone borrow that much money for an intangible benefit?
I worked two jobs to pay off my student loans. But they were nowhere near a quarter of a million dollars.
I heard a woman on the radio this morning saying no one told her about her loans accruing interest. Why was she allowed into college if she didn’t even know about compound interest? That’s 8th grade math. She said she graduated decades ago and owes more than she borrowed.
SNL years ago had a skit where a black guy goes into a bank and the banker hems and haws and denies him a loan. Then the same person, disguised as a white guy goes into the bank and the banker just starts dumping money onto him. I think this was a Eddie Murphy skit. That’s how blacks think it works in real life.
Banks look at record of on-time payments just as closely as amount of income. You can have less income, but haven’t been late on a payment in your life, and qualify for a loan quicker than someone with higher income but a record of late payments.
Parents should teach personal responsibility. If they did, there'd be a lot less kids in public schools.
More likely used to live in a nice apartment with gym, pool; drive a nice car; eat out at a nice steak house routinely; and cram a four-year degree into six years.
I could be wrong.
Call the whaaaaambulance.
Very few people make enough post grad to handle that kind of debt.
If she was worth that to an employer they would have kicked in.
