Well, it’s official: Bernie Sanders did not get an Econ 101 textbook for Christmas (again):

Bernie Sanders: You have families out there paying 6, 8, 10 percent on student debt but you can refinance your homes at 3 percent. What sense is that?

>>Just wait. Anything as “harsh” as forced loan pay-back involving junk education can’t last.

It will last as long as the government is involved. Like everything it touches, the people who do the right thing get screwed while the people who do the wrong thing will benefit.

The lenders don’t mind and the schools don’t mind. No one really cares about the dumb student who got talked into taking out the loans. Sadly, a lot of people in college are not really college material.

Just think: this man and his friends might be your nation in a year.

I’m glad you’re compromising with it. :)

I’m sure the interest rate would be the same where you get sold into slavery if you miss a college loan payment.

IOW, he's given up even the pretense of seeking the nomination.
