Most people don't have IQ's high enough to be you @Putz

My iq isn't high, i made good decisions

Maybe reducing indoctrination is the answer DJ

if over 50% of the nation

is fucking themselves over

It was a joke.

They are @Just for youtube [NB1]

And I agree with ya'll that going into debt for school is a bad idea

Sure, so why is 50% of the nation fucking themselves over?

"fixing" the problem after the fact doesn't sound good for my wallet

Lots of reasons, but that's where we are at.

the problem needs to stop happening

Either you fix the problem before they do.

And bernie isn't an issue. He can't forgive student loans, congress controls the purse

He would be step in that direction.

it can't be fixed after they make the mistake every single time

it needs to not happen in the first place

Also, just because you see stuff on the webs doesn't make it mainstream

freezing interest is about amillion times better than $50k forgiveness

so that's goin

It can be. Freeze interest on student loan's, while at the same time make it so that the government doesn't back them. Then credit agencies will stop handing the loans out

And people will stop fucking themselves over.

i think high schoolers should be taught which degrees do fucking what

Anyone who owes less than 30k in student loans, isn't going to want to socialize higher education because it would cost more than paying it off themselves... Assuming they have a brain

High schoolers should be taught something.

students truly think any degrees will put them in a better position than a plumber

It's already socialized @Putz

You learn almost nothing in highschool.

Public education as a whole should be mostly discarded or restructured.

my cousin that paid off 30k+ student loans in a few years said he should have become a plumber as soon as he looked at the numbers AFTER he graduated

You can blame parents for the quality of secondary education

I blame govt overreach more than the parents.

The parents are just as much a victim of bad parenting

and their parents are victims of bad politics.

i blame both

more on the govt though

but if parents gave a shit, govt would have to start changing stuff

could you imagine a student strike?

that would change things real quick

no students going to school for a month

Yeah but our culture has become fucked to the point that a large portion of parents don't care.
