This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

That's fair. by Kali4niaND

It just seems like EK is solely focused on student loan forgiveness, and not other forms of government handouts. While I don't agree, I can understand the general 'free shit' crowd.

I also think the Federal government needs to stay in the student loan business. But, they need to do a much better job in underwriting policies so that we avoid cases where students aren't able to repay their loans because they bought shit degrees.

Let's face it though, nothing is getting through Congress these days, so any actual reforms of everything and anything are going to have to wait until rational people are back in control.
