    I’m so sick and tired of this liberal waste. These are tax dollars that could be used for something so much better than giving people a free ride.

    Just think about it, if you took $5 billion dollars and split it up, you could give 10 billionaires a $500 million dollar tax break that would surely trickle down all over the faces of those poor people below them.

      Us poor people need to get together and prevent this madness of giving other poor people money who tried to not be poor by improving themselves, because we might someday feel like a millionaire. We should give that money to the Pentagon so they won’t know where the money went.

      I suffered paying off my loans for nearly 10 years. I skipped meals and put off sooo much maintenance so I could make my payments. I started saving for retirement much later than I wanted and will probably work till I die. Why should younger generations have it any better? /s

      Those with pay secondary educations in a while will be far richer than those with no secondary education. They will be the next rich class. So yes these loans are going to the future rich. Good job I say.
