I know y'all call me a lib, but I'm not. Just a CM. This Trump Supreme Court flip is entertaining as hell to me. I have to admit, this was the best thing he's done. Between the student debt and the affirmative action rulings, Twitter is funny as hell right now. Post 'em if you got 'em.

Uh, no. He does not.

Student loan forgiveness needs to be framed
focusing on the Universities, instead of the students.

Everyone needs to be asking - why in the age of digital information does the price for an education at a University keep getting more expensive? We need to direct the anger of the students at the universities where it belongs.

Edit: And why are universities charging so much for a product that has very little return value?

If you understand basic economics, the answer to your question is glaringly obvious.

Why don't liberals create a giant GoFundme to raise money to payoff student debt. Easy solution.

How else does a History professor get to study about the underwater basket weaving techniques in the area surrounding the Nile River at the time of Moses????

Predatory student loans. Good grief. The predators in this scenario are the education institutions who spend out of control. There is zero motivation for universities to curb ridiculous spending when they can saddle all their costs on students. This is nothing more than yet another wealth transference scheme by the left to fund their indoctrination centers on someone else's nickel.

Don't want any student debt? Do what I did.

I applied for a 4 year Army Scholarship and had a job right after college.

That would be the most obscure protest move ever if it actually happened, which it didn't. If he cancelled his Vegas trip it's probably because his credit card was declined at the Greyhound station.

The Vegas post is a microcosm of the whole issue. It's not the current debt that will hurt you in life. It's the mentality and actions.

I'm watching documentaries of the early Americans. The 1800s. The ones that got ahead? They made short term sacrifices so many now are not willing to do. Many worked 7 days a week, 12-14 hours a day. I'm not saying we need to go back to that kind of extreme. That would be awful. But it just shows you how spoiled we've become when we think not being able to take a vacation is somehow being oppressed.

The problem is, people today want the degree, want to work 30 hours a week, they want to travel, go out on the weekends, etc., and will do those things before paying extra on their loans. 99% of people who took out loans could pay them off fairly quick by either working harder, being more responsible with money, or better yet, a combination of both.

Translation:

Now that I can't rely on the Communist type bail out for the loans I signed for, I can't afford to go to Vegas so I had to cancel. I'll call it a protest of solidarity because I want others to pitch a *****, cause we are being made to be responsible by adults.

Seems to be more and more people on the left threatening to kill themselves if they don't get legislation they want.

Because they CAN, because no matter how high they raise tuition, kids will be provided the access to capital to pay for it. That's the racket. If these loans were priced correctly, borrowers would be paying usury rates on them.

You're in denial. You voted for the most left wing/socialist administration this country has ever had.

That's not what CMs do. How this isn't obvious to you points to some very deep issues in your psyche. The first step in healing is admitting what you've done in the past.

Good point but also no one is forced to go to college or take out a loan.
