President Barack Obama says college affordability isn’t just important for students, but for the nation as well.
Obama told thousands gathered at Georgia Tech Tuesday that he is trying to make it easier for them to pay back student loans. He is aiming to clamp down on the private companies that service federal student debt.
He acknowledged the modest move isn’t a “silver bullet.” But he says America needs the world’s most skilled and best educated workforce to compete in the global economy. …

From obozo’s radical Marxist perspective this makes perfect sense. Why? Because, with a handful of exceptions (Hillsdale and Liberty come to mind) these alleged “institutions of higher learning” are cranking out thousands of new brainless, critical thought deficient socialist democrat supporters every year. It’s the illegal immigrant thing for citizens.
And, while we’re on that subject, WHERE THE HELL ARE THE ALLEGED “CONSERVATIVES” IN CONGRESS as he continues to push his enemies — that’d be US — into the intellectual if not physical gulag. Trust me when I tell you that the PHYSICAL GULAG awaits!
It’s a page from the Hitler playbook that, given another few years, might have done the job, to wit:
“When an opponent declares, ‘I will not come over to your side,’ I calmly say, ‘Your child belongs to us already... What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community’.”

Sending your bill collector to jail.
A sure-fire strategy for a Democrat sweep in ‘16.

Translation: disaster for everybody.
Great, Obama making it easier for me to pay off my college loan. Which means my loan just went up, I will “accidentally” be in default and my bank account will be seized.
Driving banks out of bidness? That would be a first for Zero. He better watch out; the Powers That Be ain’t gonna like this.
But he's not a bright fellow, and he would also never jeopardize the free money flow to the Left in this country.
Better to posture like the buffoon that he is about "student loans".
If you like your indebtedness, you can keep your indebtedness...
Jugears The Foolboy. LOL!
They could digitize college texts and YouTube the best lecturers.
Of course, that would put the college bookstore scam out of business, and most college lecturers would suddenly become unemployed. :)
