I cannot even imagine what it would be like to be in your Twenties and carry tens of thousands of dollars of college loan debt. And we wonder where the mental health crisis comes from? Economic anxiety is a pit of despair. Every American should realize that college and public universities were tuition free up until the mid-1960s. Unfettered capitalism is ravenous in its search for a profit center, even if it emerges from or causes human suffering. How dare we tell young people they should have respect for capitalism when they. have. no. capital! None of this will change until we change it. #ANewBeginning

We've grown used to the idea of privatizing everything. From schooling to war, everything is a profit center.

Capitalism isn't unfettered. It's encouraged and manipulated by a government that guarantees the availability of financing for exorbitant prices. Get the government out of the way and let the prices be forced back down to affordable levels by the market

They could work and pay on them while in school bringing down the principal before the interest starts

They promised to repaid the loans they asked for and they are not doing it, THEY SHOULD FEEL BAD! They are worthless, lying, pieces of shit! They need to pay the loans that THEY ASKED FOR and that THEY PROMISED TO REPAY.

So why would you go to the entity that fucked you with the loans to now help you?

But it is still a choice. My wife did it and paid it off like so many others. Even automotive tech have to do it. Grow up and take responsibility for your actions.
