pattyangel Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 I agree, srap it. Spoiled brats, leaches want everything free. Shame on you parents for molding they minds, that the government will take care of them....government gives, government can always take away. If we allow it, then it will continue. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

md11fr8dawg Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 Umbertino, I graduated college in 1973. Worked all summer to get college spending money (we were farmers and my folks did not have the $ to pay for my education. I got through the 1st two years on a basketball scholarship and borrowed the money for the last years. I spent the next 10 years paying off my college loan while back then many people were defaulting on the same type loans. I am SICK of the liberal BS you bring here. It NEVER has worked, NEVER will work. Nothing is free and the sooner the people of this country realize this the better off the country will be. Especially in today's world. Give these snowflakes free college to learn how to develop safe spaces and community organize. Yeah right! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coorslite21 Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 (edited) If you just look at what has happened in the past 30 years to Education in America you will find it is in the crapper. Whatever, and whoever, have failed miserably. From 1st to 27th in the world! Education in America is in a death spiral. Time to shake things up........the status quo isn't cutting it..........JMO The cost of higher education is out of control, What these kids are paying today isn't worth the time, or expense. At $20 Trillion in debt the US financially is also in a death spiral. The US can't foot the bill for everyone. A revamp of education in America should be at the top of the list of priorities.

SgtFuryUSCZ Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 Why should Patriotic Americans be forced to pick up the tab for these little indoctrinated kommies who are hell-bent on destroying our Republic...? Suck it up you irresponsible little traitors ! If you hate Capitalism SO much, why did you incur the debt to begin with...? If you got a problem with the high cost of your kommie education, why don't you ask all your 'supposed' socialist teachers why THEY act like a bunch of Capitalist pigs by demanding outrageous salaries for brain-washing you....? MORONS. All that money and you're all still a bunch of ignorant tools. . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karsten Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 And then these Snowflakes act like this due to their lack of respect.

Karsten Although it looks like they are wasting their parent's money, what they are really doing is buying 4 years of the American dream. With that, the promise of a bright future, six-figure incomes and happily ever after. No one tells them that it is an illusion that doesn't exist for the majority of the population. What do kids know?, when they have been sold a bill of goods all the way from the top, to the bottom feeding corporations and institutions that rely on an income stream that is dependent on each next generation buying into the illusion that has been depicted through the education system and advertising. It is a glorified ponzi scheme and someone, somewhere has to be the one that foots the bill. It's not about repayment of student loans, it is about how our institution are over selling their products to keep the money flowing. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SgtFuryUSCZ Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 (edited) ***/// Yuh.... those kommie institutions that over-charge you to brainwash your kids because the cost of hiring those fake affirmative-action professors like Pochahontas Warren ain't cheap.... and somebody has to pay for all those fake foreign students (Barry Soetoro) who come here to further their indoctrination and hang out with radical professors like Bill Ayres and his bunch of terrorists to learn how to over-throw governments... and other foreign students who need funding to complete their socialist education so they can be better Dictators-- like Fidel Castro and Manuel Noriega.... and poor unfortunate kids who can't cut it academically so have to scream fake racism in order to take a spot away from some kid who does work hard and gets stellar grades... and why should these poor unfortunate kids not be paid to undermine the Rule of Law, terrorize and destroy campuses, destroy Free Speech, destroy private property, disrespect Our Flag, violently assault decent American Patriots, Attack our Freedom of Religion, belittle our Military Veterans and Law Enforcement, be taught little Brown-Shirt tactics to terrorize our population and agitate their way across our Republic's landscape..... ????????

markb57 Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Here's why they must pay back their loans. I saw several articles from different publications.
