    Fuck y’all. I chose to not go to college and went with a lower paying career field as a trade off for lower earning potential. Using the tax dollars I’ve paid over the years to help eliminate the negative trade off everyone else chose to take on when they went to college is crap.

      Cool story man. Let’s all do the same thing. Let’s hope we never need a doctor or a civil engineer

        Those jobs pay in reflection of college and it’s debts. Time and costs in exchange for six figure salaries.

        Because it would still be $60,000 plus interest, plus the other costs associated with going to college.

        If just going to public university and paying that is no big deal, then i guess no one needs their college debt wiped, since everyone had that same option.
