ya if I found out I spent 10 of thousands of dollars on education and I am still a retard, I'd probably be pretty pissy too.

2018-10-01 00:21:35 UTC  

Here's something the colleges do that not everyone knows about

2018-10-01 00:21:39 UTC  

They boast a hiring rate, right?

2018-10-01 00:21:45 UTC  

The crisis is not the magnitude of the debt, or even the prospect that it might default at a high rate (though those two things cooperate to enhance the danger): the crisis is that the way it is "resolved" may be an immense political goldmine.

2018-10-01 00:21:48 UTC  

sorry, not "spent" "borrowed"...

2018-10-01 00:21:58 UTC  

Well a lot of these colleges have companies that will take on students for awhile just to fire them in a little while, so they can have that hiring rate.

2018-10-01 00:22:08 UTC  

They boast hiring rates?

2018-10-01 00:22:11 UTC  

Yes.

2018-10-01 00:22:23 UTC  

I feel like the schools should be selling insurance then

2018-10-01 00:22:24 UTC  

Do they even bother to break it down by major?

2018-10-01 00:22:25 UTC  

I was warned against one of those diploma mills by the department of voc rehab, I think it was Devry I was talking to recruiters from

2018-10-01 00:22:32 UTC  

The insurance pays the loans.

2018-10-01 00:22:35 UTC  

Grant I can't get too pedantic in detail right now.

2018-10-01 00:22:44 UTC  

I just know it's done. And nothing stops it.

2018-10-01 00:22:54 UTC  

Shady but not illegal

2018-10-01 00:23:06 UTC  

Colleges are full of snakes.

2018-10-01 00:23:08 UTC  

Well

2018-10-01 00:23:15 UTC  

I mean, it probably could be resolved in court.

2018-10-01 00:23:17 UTC  

It wouldn't surprise me if they massage a lot stats to be very misleading.

2018-10-01 00:23:23 UTC  

That seems very very very close to commercial fraud.

2018-10-01 00:23:33 UTC  

in 10 years tens of thousands will be pretty much nothing

2018-10-01 00:23:34 UTC  

I hope so.

2018-10-01 00:23:44 UTC  

Not to Wacka.

2018-10-01 00:23:50 UTC  

Wacka has been talking nonsense.

2018-10-01 00:23:57 UTC  

"Inflation is great for your debt!" Okay.

2018-10-01 00:24:04 UTC  

Got an elixir to sell us too?

2018-10-01 00:24:08 UTC  

inflation will go up as wages increase

2018-10-01 00:24:11 UTC  

well inflation actually is....

2018-10-01 00:24:19 UTC  

Inflation is great for debtors, yeah.

2018-10-01 00:24:24 UTC  

Sadly only diploma mills and technical schools tend to get in trouble for being bullshit

2018-10-01 00:24:25 UTC  

Inflation is a tax on people who save.

2018-10-01 00:24:29 UTC  

i mean, when you are spending 10 million bucks for a roll of toilet paper, your hundred thousand dollar loan is pretty easy to pay off.

2018-10-01 00:24:47 UTC  

I really despise money. If it were just money and stayed money, I wouldn't hate it.

2018-10-01 00:24:50 UTC  

It's one of the main reasons keeping inflation under control is crucial in the long run, economically.

2018-10-01 00:24:51 UTC  

the fed is targeting 2% but whats it at now?

2018-10-01 00:24:53 UTC  

But there's all these shenanigans.

2018-10-01 00:24:59 UTC  

Gender Studies at a state college can be worthless but still not have committed any crime on the books

2018-10-01 00:25:06 UTC  

It's not schenanigans, scrib, it's the whole point of money.

2018-10-01 00:25:16 UTC  

and it is immensely useful.

2018-10-01 00:25:18 UTC  

Money was meant to replace swapping random shit.

2018-10-01 00:25:20 UTC  

It is the reason we have all this shit.
