This is a 100% guaranteed money-loser.

Assume you go to a private school at $50k/year.

Four years = $200,000.

Assume a starting salary of $50k a year.

Assume a 5% increase a year in salary.

Even if you paid 10% of your TOTAL income each year, your maximum payback in 20 years would be $165,000.

TAXPAYERS LOSE $35,000.

Multiply that by millions of students every year over decades and you have even more trillions of dollars added to our already massive $13 trillion Federal debts. 0bama’ insanity just has to be stopped at all costs.

"Four years = $200,000"

Except, even if you are an independent undergrad student, you are capped currently at $57,500 total lifetime loan limits. It goes up for grad/professional to $138,500, and medical is $224,000. There are already numerous loan forgiveness programs for doctors/nurse practitioners usually if they agree to work in a rural, under-served area.
