Wow. These corporations really seem to hate good old fashioned American Capitalism. Almost like an admission that it doesn’t really work.

If it were harder to get these student loans, maybe it would help keep higher educational costs in check too. Seems like half the reason that college has gotten so expensive is because it’s so easy to get a hundred thousand or so in loans to pay for it, all backed by the government.

Well said!!!!

I graduated 2007 from a state school and was able to buy a house in 2009.

Even state schools charge $10k/semester and that’s -not- taking into account room, books, food...  So, sure, the average private school is double that, but good on ya if you don’t consider that “crazy expensive.”

The state schools are drastically underfunded these days. Their tuitions have had to increase to make up the gap. I strongly doubt there are any remaining state schools that someone can graduate from with little or no debt.

State funding of colleges and universities has dropped off wildly over the decades so if your loans/tuition were less decades ago, it was because someone else’s tax dollars helped pay a LOT of your education in public funding of colleges and universities. That money is gone and tuition is way higher compared to wages.…

I have never been so happy to be ingorant of something.

Make sure your insurance is paid up, and just keep parking that Charger on the street. Problem will sort itself.

Sooooooo he’s the typical Dodge Charger owner then.

Manufacturing of complex goods requires certainty. A dysfunctional political system that enables policy changes depending on whether a slight breeze moves past is a recipe for disaster.

There is no more torturous first-world problem that getting stuck in a Starbucks drive-thru line for a half-hour if just one car ahead of you is a soccer mom in a Suburban filled with teens, each wanting their own, customized Frappuccino.

I would take my money to the Porsche dealership and buy a 911 instead.
