Still Marching
I just read the Atlanta Occutard list of demands. What it amounts to is a Marxist wish list.
First off is a demand for student loan relief. What a joke!
I paid for mine, my kids pay theirs off. Why is it my responsibility to pay off a 100K loan that an Occutard took out for a degree in primitive cultures?
I thought for sure I had read that the average Student Loan was somewhere around $26,000. Hell, nearly any decent new car will cost you more than that.......
Ollie, the biggest problem we have now are the private off the wall on line colleges. VA and other government benefits allows payment to them. Phoenix University is one of the worst. Government pays 40K to these crooks that a vet could get the same degree at their local community college for 4K.
Something has to be done but these on line companies have Republicans and Democrats in their back pockets on the hill.
And they have NO loans on these. Add in the loans and you have over 1 trillion now in college loans.
the average loan is about 25K but that takes into account ALL students. Average loan amongst graduates with a loan is over 45K.
Mine have 25K and 14K and my daughter has an acting career to pay for hers.
My daughter spent 7 years getting her nursing degree working full time and going to school weekends and nights. She has so far refused any help and will not discuss if she even has any student loans. She tells her Mother and I to "Don't worry about it, we're doing fine." And she does drive a new car and has a better house than we do.... While raising 2 teenagers now......
