No, no, no—we don’t! Anyone in their ‘70s being crushed by student loan payments was especially idiotic or criminal.

And the idea of payments being income-based has always been a scam—talk about incentives to make your citizens lay-abouts!

Universities sit on billions because people have made charitable contributions to them—and then they have invested those contributions wisely.

And they only jack up the tuition to what the market will bear. Once we totally pull the plug on taxpayer-funded loans, the market will bear a lot less and a lot of these six-to 12-year luxury vacations starting, well, immediately.

That was a bad, Javanka-driven move by Trump and I’m glad it didn’t go through.

BTW, the student loan system even vaguely as we know it today only started 60 years ago, and through the 80’s, at least, you’d have to be either on your way to a medical degree or an idiot to rack up debt of the type you are alluding too.

What are you ever doing on a conservative site if you have such a pathetic idea of people paying their debts and not sticking taxpayers with their bad loans?

Do tell, what is your secret for collecting money from people who don’t have any? Indentured servitude?

Unlike, AOC, I do know what that term means, and the 13th Amendment eliminated it.

Universities invested ‘wisely’? Examples, please?

One can be a conservative and still be a realist and a non arsehole.
