No forgiveness of student loan debt. It’s okay if their lives suck because they made poor career choices.

You could see this landslide back in the late 1990s, and how people were getting degrees that would never earn them more than $35k to $45k a year, for the next 30 years.

I ended up one night at a airport....trying to get my rental car, and the only one left was the ‘boss’ (a young lady, 23, just out of college, with a general business degree). This was the type of position that you would have hired a retired Army/Navy vet (without a degree), and probably paid around $30k a year as the rental shop ‘boss’. It made no sense for her to occupy this job, but no one else needed someone with her limited skills and background.

That’s our problem today....too many idiots with degrees and no real necessity for them.

For fun, what about the poor choices made by the lenders?

How about the poor choices made by education “leaders” in preparing students for the market?

How about large corporations having retards from HR require a degree in anything to get a job?

How about the poor choices by bankers that led to the subprime mortgage debacle?
