It's a scam designed to be a life support system for a bunch of assholes who for the most part can't do or contribute anything useful to society. Without academia and tenure many would be occupying a tent in one off the homeless camps and craping on the streets.Very true. It’s a scam.And to think the more costs have gone up the education received has been in steady decline. So much so that today's graduate of a liberal arts program is as dumb as a box of rocks and has NO useful skills or knowledge whatsoever to market. All they've managed to do is piss away four or more years of their lives that they can never recover.You’re not comprehending. If only those who are rich can afford college, you have done a great disservice to the nation.Wrong. College costs are a scam. Why do you support a scam?No one is forced to take on student debt.
Accordingly, cancelling it would be the height of stupidity...
I don't support a scam. I also don't support allowing people to borrow money to go to college and then simply telling them they don't have to pay it back. You can't do that with your mortgage company, why should you be able to do it with college loans? No one was forced to take on the debt from college loans. No one. Ever.
I didn't go to college but, somehow, I'm in a far better place financially than a lot of my friends who had student loans to pay. But, as I always remind them, they chose to take on that debt, knowing full well what the cost would be...
Outside of HC costs (also a scam), nothing as gone up in cost more than college tuition. Forcing young people into massive debt serfdom to get a college education, is ignorant and harmful.
Please. Wake up.
