Why pay it back? Why? Good grief.

What does that mean for suckers who have faithfully paid off their loan?

This was always part of the plan. It’s part of the Great Looting. “If they won’t give us reparations, we’ll take them.” It started with Pigford, at the beginning of the Obama reign of terror and the smash-and-grab of America’s wealth has continued for 8 years.

So my wife sold her car and made it a priority to pay off her student loan, some 15 years back. How is that fair? Where is her loan forgiveness?

I’d opt for clawing back all of the money from the worthless, overpaid professors that didn’t teach these poor students anything of value for the money they received.

GAO

Gas available overnight...

All of a sudden, everyone has a plan.

You’d almost think all them were elected, and Trump was the only person who wasn’t.

I find student loans almost predatory. I know these students sign up for them and they are technically adults. However, I don’t think anyone with absolutely no credit history should ever be allowed to take on so much debt, especially with no foreseeable way for them to pay it back.

I paid all my loans off. My wife paid all her loans off. We scrimped and saved for our kids’ education. We did without new cars and lived in a less than modest home. BUT, dad-gummit, we paid off all their quite substantial loans, too (they helped significantly themselves). They had real majors and now have real jobs.

So where is the fairness and social justice in having one expectation for my family, and another expectation for deadbeats. I was often in court over the past 15 years where defendants used their student loans to pay fines, fees and attorneys. I am pretty sure that is not what the American taxpayers expect.

The Dems must be outraged. They used student loans to pay for Obamacare. So forgiving student loans hurts their favorite “success”.

A fair media might point out how screwed up dem programs are and how they steel from one to support another then complain about the funding for the one they stole from.

NO!

I paid for mine and I paid for my kiddos’ so there is no reason I should be made to pay for everyone else. Make them pay for their own womens studies and underwater basket weaving as they’re goofing off, waving giant dildos against campus carry and demanding more green play-doh in their safe spaces.

I understood the need to graduate asap and that was back before students could get a couple years of college under their belt in high school. I started out with 0 hours as a freshman and graduate in 3 years by taking the maximum hours each semester and going year round. That saved a year of tuition costs. I lived in the dorm and had the meal plan but snowflakes have to have ritzy apartments and eat out. Had a few part time jobs for spending money but that’s below high maintenance snowflakes. And still had time to have fun though not 24/7 like college students today.

I graduated and had my first real job at 20 and didn’t owe a dime to anyone. How many snowflakes can say that? But, nooooo, I’m supposed to foot their bill. I - don’t - think - so.

Having paid tuition for 3 kids (no loans), we are naturally not thrilled to see the improvident rewarded.
