How can Trump get away with comments like this?

Is that why a slew of for profit universities were sued into the ground recently for predatory tuitions? (Student loans: Court fight looms over debts of former Corinthian Colleges students)

I am not talking about fraud. Try again.

Doesnt sound like 'buyer beware' held up well, especially not when victimizing teens with little financial experience and no realistic ideas of what the job market will afford them to pay off.

Strawman. More so you prove my point. Government loans have no oversight letting the naive take out loans at a whim.

So your advice really says 'don't go to college unless you're rich.' One of many reasons US is becoming a **** hole.

Nope, strawman.

Not relevant.

Wrong as government is providing the loans without any oversight. Try again

I did twice.

Not in your post to me. Try again. Maybe figure out how post timestamps work?

Prospective medical professionals can't afford the lengthy schooling even becoming higher priced specialists.

That is not a loan issue than as per afford. They do not want the debt, nothing more.

The result is less people 'making it' as doctors, especially in lower pay but higher need positions

Yawn. Ignore the multiple programs which medical professions can use to help with loans. Ignores public vs for-profit. Ignores market demand. Ignores student choice in it's own citation. Ignores that he lives in NYC (cost of living) thus his choice of residence which is his problem. Ignores issue of wages completely. Never addresses why tuition increased instead demands government pays for it without question. Ignores school choice by the students. Never looks at spending habits of students nor those with debt.

FYI Canadian doctors are taking a pay cut, willingly, while there is no free university up here. Odd how they do not care about student loans while the US does.... Think about it.

What a novel idea.

A friend told me her daughter owes $200K in loans incurred
while earning her BS in physics. Instead of using her degree
to find lucrative work, she works in a Michael's (fabric & notions).
Bad move, eh?

Not for the entitlement generation.

Well, mom says that daughter has embraced a wing of feminism
which says she's a victim. I consoled mom by saying that brains
mature around 30 years of age. She'll come around in a few years..

A victim? Jeez .. seems like everybody is competing for victim status these days.

Intersectionality is the new leftist babble. Check off the right minority boxes and you get to be a victim too! White Males need not apply. One could be a billionaire but if a woman is more a victim than a man.

You as a Christian are less of a victim than the Muslims in KSA just due to religion. Nevermind that you are a minority in KSA.

A young woman with a degree in physics thinks she's a victim?? She should have the world by the tail.

Yup. Woman are victims more than men due to "patriarchy!" Doesn't matter if the person is rich or not. This enables everyone not white and male to blame something or someone else for all their life's problems.
