I am neither a plumber nor a welder but I am fairly certain you don't make $100k/yr at either without significant apprenticeships, coursework, accreditations etc.

One thing about trades... the side jobs are endless.

Wow, okay man.  Thanks for being an a-hole.  Have a wonderful day.

You burdening other tax payers to pay your bills even though you can afford to pay them yourself and I'm the A-hole? I am having a wonderful day and a awesome life without reneging on my bills.

I'm surprised it took 3 pages.

I'm not surprised you agree with having the government pay your bills which you CAN afford to pay.

I paid 100% of my student loans, cupcake.  No, you cannot borrow money from me.

 

You're a real miserable prick even on a wonderful day.  I'd love to see you on a bad day.

Good for you cream puff. Now go pay off johnny cheapskates loan, since you're for having someone else pay them off. Maybe you should pay it off.

I'll pay your bills if you go back to finishing school and learn to behave like a proper lady.

Also people looking for free labor.  My father was a union bricklayer for almost 40 years, but was a jack of all trades type of guy.  I can’t remember too many weekends where he wasn’t helping someone remodel their kitchen or doing plumbing.  Always helping others 😂

Wow, you must be fabulously middle class if you pay that much in taxes.  Everyone knows the truly wealthy pay very  little in taxes.

Only ignorant people think that.

The loan principle is probably paid off on all these loans... It's the usury, interest that's most likely being forgiven.  I got no problem with cutting the parasites off... They sucked enough blood money.

How is my take garbage? You obviously can pay your own student back but you refuse to do that.  Yet you choose to put it on the backs of taxpayers? Why? 

Do you feel entitled to be bailed out on a loan YOU signed and agreed to pay? My tak isn't garbage. Those who "choose" to be bailed out when they don't need to be is garbage.

Did anyone put a gun to their head and force them to sign?

Um, @Westside , I know this might not be the best time to ask, but I’ve had my eyes on this expensive bottle of Japanese bourbon at the liquor store.  
 

Even with the new “expendable” income due to my recent student loan forgiveness, I can bring myself to splurge.  Given that you’re so rich, would you be willing to buy it for me as a congratulatory gift?

OP is employed in the public school system. The kind of service that these programs incentivize is something we should be supporting, not making folks feel badly about. How is this materially different from the GI bill or subsequent iterations

What came first, the chicken or the egg?

 

Psalm 37:21 "The wicked borrow and do not repay, but the righteous give generously."

 

Most loans are repaid more than what was borrowed.

 

Deuteronomy 23:19 - "Thou shalt not lend upon usury to thy brother; usury of money, usury of victuals, usury of any thing that is lent upon usury."

Very curious to see Westhole’s response to that post.  He MUST be vehemently opposed to the GI Bill, right?
