Did you ever play the board game Junta? Basinc idea is each player in behind a powerful family in a banana republic and who ever has stolen the most by the end of the game wins.
Half or more of the fun was hamming it up and role playing the leader for the people your family backed, prattling on about the “people’s tank” or the great patriotic army squad while suppressing a riot.
The big problem is that these students entered into a contract which legal and not entered under duress. No one, not even the prez can say to a party to either party you can quit paying.
Biden could take taxpayer’s money to pay off debt on behalf of the students. And that would be real vote getter move. Not!
He was successfully transformed into an entitled piggy wanting to suck on the public teat ... my guess is he is just what they want to create.
“But current and former students, including one who owes a staggering $118,000, said the looming payments are simply above their pay grades,”
Payments are based on income, not on amount owed.
Assuming $25 gross income the dude with $118k will pay $86 a month.
But that useless education wasn’t above your pay grade when you took out a LOAN you knew you had to pay back.
Put yourself on a budget and man up and pay it off.
What was his manor? I want to tell my granddaughter ot to enroll in. LOSER.
yep
$25k
“If my degree was in indigenous basket weaving and had $30,000 in student debt, and still flipping hamburgers, I would do the same.”
He is not even flipping burgers. Probably Antifa living in his parents basement.
We need to bring back debtors prisons.
If these students owed $50K on a Tesla or pickup truck that would be no problem. They would call it an investment.
The solution is to demand the colleges and universities repay the student loans using their endowments which run into billions of dollars.
If the students were ripped off, it is the colleges and universities that screwed them. If higher education is a scam, let the scammers payoff the loans. The scammers got the proceeds of the student loans and gave the students no way to earn their way out of the debt created by vastly overcharging for college educations.
pure deadbeats, period.
The lie of unemployment numbers being rosy:
“On average, over 2,000 hours a year [5.5 hours/day, average!] on screens,” Rowe said.
“You know, four million fewer people are in the workforce today than before the lockdowns and four million more jobs have opened up. It’s almost a perfect mirror image and the reflection is kind of hideous.”

Now he's a self-employed Game Artist.
These people voluntarily entered into personal debt.
No one forced them to take these loans out.
I paid mine back, double time.
da phuc i am paying anyone else’s debts back
They had no problem with the monster feeding them. Never mind voting for the monster that fed them. That makes them ungrateful children of the monster, thus monsters themselves.
If the loans are charged off they will meet the real monster, the IRS.
A partial solution would be to reinstate the Draft, and not just for the military. Include any Government service that needs workers. Minimum wage, section 8 housing (that is close to their job). 2-4 years of service depending on the size of their debt.
FU U F n A FREELOADING A HOLES!!! I am NOT responsible for you crap decisions.
Lazy destructive dirtbag.
