When I hear Right wing Republican't pundits & politicians complaining about student loan forgiveness programs this meme takes on a more urgent message about passing on the cost of professional training at the college level. So many of the politicians tend to be college-trained professionals who routinely escalate their bills to not only cover legislation to protect their occupation but to also cover the cost of THEIR STUDENT LOANS... passing on their student loan debt to you and me, their own debt forgiveness program.
DON'T BELIEVE IT? Just ask your Doctor or Lawyer about their ridiculous fees and see if they don't defend it by mentioning their student loan debt or some of the things in this meme.
Last week I met with an elder care lawyer about helping me to get guardianship of my stepmother. He wanted $5000 dollars to do it and only if it was uncontested. Now how do they justify that? fancy offices, expensive copy machines, and student loan debt, RIGHT?
My ex-wife put me in contact with a para-legal that helped me fill out and file the papers for free! Total time spent on completing the paperwork and filing it myself... 2 and a half hours, total cost of filing fee... $177 dollars.
Don't believe student loans weren't a pyramid scam scheme from the start? Just look at the inflation rates for a college education since the beginning of the student loan program.
There's more than one type of student loan forgiveness... one for the professionals, the wealthy, and the political and another one for the rest of us.
Any person who is using his professional training to pay off his student loan debt is fortunate and exempt from my criticism, but those who justify their elevated fees so as to pay off their loans and then criticize others who are overwhelmed with debt are just plain hypocritical to the point of being dishonest.
