1. Schools gave out these loans to “afford” to go there with very little, if any, regard to the repayment details and the money that would take from them in the future.

2. A bunch of liberals telling people if they get power they will forgive loans

3. Helping to build a culture that everyone needs a college degree.

4. Ability to postpone any payment so they have no idea what type of money will be needed to repay and the effect that has on them.

Probably more as well.

Does anyone here support forgiving student debt? - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 09:37:38

No. Taking a loan involves risk, and the risks are borne - Bulldog Bob Brown STL - 4/2 11:16:46

I’d consider a stimulus but never a total forgivness and... - JayRoy KC - 4/2 11:09:59

Not only did they foolishly pay them off - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:21:22

Yes. It will be like all of those young people who - ummmm MU - 4/2 10:20:58

RE: So donors who paid into the endowment fund should have - BH O'bonga MU - 4/2 10:22:17

I don't disagree, but that does not answer the question of - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:30:04

No (nm) - Sal CMSU - 4/2 10:09:23

Yes - meatiger MU - 4/2 10:08:23

Can we try that again in English?(nm) - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:11:52

Sorry. On my phone on a plane(nm) - meatiger MU - 4/2 10:13:25

So you support both of those positions? - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:15:23

What do you think?(nm) - meatiger MU - 4/2 10:17:46

So what role did the government have in forcing those - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:20:32

the central bank, expansion of credit, guaranteed loans, etc - pickle MU

- 4/2 10:29:22

A number of things - meatiger MU - 4/2 10:25:05

None of those have anything to do with the government - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:28:25

Bull$h1t - meatiger MU - 4/2 10:31:52

Tell me how government forced students to take those loans - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:34:15

Simply put: Moral Hazard. (nm) - ummmm MU - 4/2 10:26:19

Yep - meatiger MU - 4/2 10:29:36

And that is indeed true - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:29:07

Maybe not exactly alike, but still comparable. - ummmm MU - 4/2 10:31:29

don’t let him reshape the issue - pickle MU

- 4/2 10:33:58

I was just preempting his anticipated response. (nm) - ummmm MU - 4/2 10:36:19

gotcha (nm) - pickle MU

- 4/2 10:40:41

The applicable example would be if government forced a - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:37:47

In that instance, you would support the govt paying back - ummmm MU - 4/2 10:41:52

I will say what I said about this issue before - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:44:40

Okay, so reparations with proof. (nm) - ummmm MU - 4/2 10:47:32

If anyone can demonstrate their direct loss as a result - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:50:25

oh, dear (nm) - pickle MU

- 4/2 10:52:29

Does direct loss include the time value of money/property - ummmm MU - 4/2 10:52:05

No, unless they can demonstrate without question - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:57:27

Btw, the PPP program didn't account for proof of actual - ummmm MU - 4/2 11:05:04

And that is why, despite the repeated lies, not one person - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 11:08:02

You wait until now to drop this? - ummmm MU - 4/2 11:12:51

Until now? - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 11:14:40

no one except you is lying here - pickle MU

- 4/2 11:30:26

In this thread, I mean. (nm) - ummmm MU - 4/2 11:18:25

That's not difficult at all. For every death, there is - ummmm MU - 4/2 10:59:30

But you said for property that was taken - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 11:06:18

Yes, stolen labor / unpaid wages. - ummmm MU - 4/2 11:10:22

And that is the issue with reparations - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 11:13:29

People bring actions on behalf of estates all the time. - ummmm MU - 4/2 11:19:19

I have said if anyone can show me a direct loss they - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 11:38:50

you are supportive of $6T reparations (nm) - pickle MU

- 4/2 11:48:39

The direct loss is the estate of their great great great - ummmm MU - 4/2 11:47:32

No, it is not - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 11:51:58

That is YOUR issue with reparations. - kmawv8 KC - 4/2 11:18:27

Your advice to hokie regarding philosophy would fit here - pickle MU

- 4/2 10:49:57

you are trying to reshape the issue - pickle MU

- 4/2 10:41:51

RE: Maybe not exactly alike, but still comparable. - meatiger MU - 4/2 10:33:01

We aren't talking about loans - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:35:19

The student loan crisis - meatiger MU - 4/2 10:37:29

Agreed it was a government problem - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:38:17

Not at all - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:32:46

This is incorrect: - ummmm MU - 4/2 10:39:55

So if the government forces you out of your house even - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:41:22

The govt has no money. It only takes from other people. - ummmm MU - 4/2 10:44:35

And if that were to happen with my house - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:46:24

It wouldn't be your money. Your money is spent and gone - ummmm MU - 4/2 10:47:15

And couldn't this same argument be made for student - ummmm MU - 4/2 10:49:13

If you can show me student loan borrowers were forced, - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 10:51:59

I didn't have to buy a house. Business owners didn't have - ummmm MU - 4/2 10:55:04

There is an absolute difference - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 11:00:25

But why should non-business owners backstop the risks of - ummmm MU - 4/2 11:07:19

A risk of owning business is not that the government - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 11:09:37

It absolutely is. In fact, regime uncertainty and govt - ummmm MU - 4/2 11:11:42

In foreign counties those are indeed known risks - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 11:16:27

LMFAO - pickle MU

It happens all the time here. - kmawv8 KC - 4/2 11:23:57

Those are not telling you that you must shut your doors - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 11:39:49

Liquor laws are exactly that. (nm) - kmawv8 KC - 4/2 12:05:02

How so? - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 12:11:38

If a bar is operating until 3:00 and the state changes - kmawv8 KC - 4/2 12:13:06

They are not being totally shut down - that is why I have - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 12:16:45

Oh, so you only support it if it's a total shutdown. - kmawv8 KC - 4/2 12:19:54

I have been 100% consistent since the issue of this - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 12:29:15

You haven't at all (nm) - kmawv8 KC - 4/2 13:13:56

Also, don't forget the near 2 decades of actual Prohibition - ummmm MU - 4/2 12:26:46

Who has forgotten about them?(nm) - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 12:29:45

Anyone who acts like the govt doesn't totally shut down - ummmm MU - 4/2 12:30:51

It does matter for this thread - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 12:33:55

Was it a bar owners fault in 1919 that he could no longer - ummmm MU - 4/2 12:36:55

No, and perhaps something could have been considered then - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 4/2 12:44:01

You're speaking for all of business owners and what they - kmawv8 KC - 4/2 13:43:49

100% false (nm) - pickle MU
