This is about the first smart thing that DeSantis has said since he announced.
No conservative should be defending the inflated costs of college, the bogus claims on the worth of so many useless college degress, and the hard sell lending tactics.
My dissident right way to deal with college debt is to seize most of the endowments of the liberal universities, and use that.
Also require them to hold the debt of their graduates as their remaining endowments.
Indeed, the cost of college is ridiculous, much of it to feed the bloat in non-teaching administration, much of which is in the realm of DEI kommissars.
Another issue that I was surprised to see PA's Democrat governor address is the fact that so many jobs these days require college degrees that aren't really necessary to do the job. You need a degree to be a doctor, a lawyer, an engineer. You don't really need a college degree for a great many other desk jobs.
Strawman Argument!
No true conservative ever defended the inflated cost of useless college degrees, etc.
Rather, conservatives have always maintained: "Those degrees are worthless - but if you want to assume debt in order to acquire those degrees, then you will be morally and legally required to repay them!"
Regards,
I think that perhaps the ‘students’ who want this who were never able to get a job in the discipline for which they studied and paid borrowed money for should be allowed to throw that debt in on a bankruptcy - provided that the college/university which they attended ALSO becomes a bankruptcy debtor partner, if you will. They have to be made to pay if we are ever going to stop worthless education from proliferating.
HOW many of these ‘Students’ had a gun to their head to get loans for “Women’s Studies & other such useless ideas???
