People with college degrees make $1 million or more over their lifetime than people without college degrees… Why would we re-distribute their debt to be paid by people who haven’t gone to college? Defies logic.
That isn’t how the economic math functions mike, but way to pick up on an old economic statistic. So can I ask Mike, where did you get that statistic from? And do you think people are just stealing degrees and trying to get you to pay for it? So laughable
The US Bureau of labor and statistics tells us this…. If you look at the bottom of this article you’ll see their references… Most of from the US government under the Biden administration. Joe Biden would not lie to me
No one is stealing anything… they are willingly signing on the bottom line of the loan contract… Obligating them to pay. Pay your own debts. It’s the American way.
No it isn’t mike, America sucks. Fucking eachother over and school shootings are the American way. The rich have been stealing from middle and poor people in increasing rates since the 80’s.
I’m not sure that this is a bad thing. What the DOE considered to be default, and how many are still in default is rather amazing. These are people who took out loans and never paid anything back. That’s not fair to those that did.
Oh so you drank the Kool-Aid that tells you your fellow Americans who are struggling are the enemy, and not the billionaires who pay no taxes.
Remember, if you’re a good person who has struggled then you should want others not to struggle like you did…
Workers: It’s time to fight back. Soaring #prices, falling #wages, and deeper billionaire rule. But the crisis goes beyond any one politician. We need a new system—built by #workers, led by workers, international in scope, democratic in structure, and rooted in power at the point of production.

"The problem," Miller said, "is that we had received a pretty clear message from the Trump administration that there was never a ton of interest in really standing up for borrowers"
