Not political: Student loan forgiveness
May 6, 2022, 12:13 PM

Biden just lifted a lot of restrictions to get your loans forgiven if you have made 10 years of payments and work in certain public sectors.

Fat people losing weight is "fatphobic"??
May 6, 2022, 5:14 PM

I guess this fat girl in the video has never connected the dots between obesity and poor health.... Obesity is one of the biggest drivers of bad health in the USA and ultimately contributes to higher healthcare costs for all of us. So yes - I'll proudly be a fat shaming fat phobic if it means losing weight, exercising and eating healthy...

It's ultimately just transferring debt.

no he is forgiving debt not transferring debt

if you were transferring it, it would not just disappear. Transferring would mean somebody else would then be responsible for your poor choices. That doesn't make sense.

Someone is going to pay for it. It doesn't just disappear.

Support state schools at a level where they are affordable again
I could earn enough bagging groceries in a summer to pay tuition room board and books for a semester and work study through out the year for the other one back in the good old days but that doesn’t fit in a sound bite I guess
You want to go to Duke or Harvard or someplace real exclusive like Wofford, you’re on your own -don’t whine to me about student debt

Good points. The trouble is state supported schools

continue to raise costs faster than pretty much anything on earth with the exception of health care....they ALL do it, and there's nothing the consumer can do except actually STOP attending. That's the only thing that's gonna drive down costs.
New buildings, meal plan sushi, etc. are all justification.
It's like $120k for 4 years IN STATE at CU. Probably 100k at the chicken coop. Shid, even somewheres like Lander is over $100k. Most USC-directional schools are $80k+.
Debt is a choice, I get that. But F these prices. Imma try to steer all mine through local tech then transfer for the final 2. The full 4 don't make sense.

he's at Clemson on Life and Palmetto scholarships, and if he goes 4 years he'll still need a loan before it's over.
