It's not. I haven't changed. The people making the allegations changed. It's like Elon's meme:



But with Patriots™ who think their views have been consistent over time, even though they've radically shifted, leaving people who didn't move to seem very liberal.

There's nothing wrong with changing. We all do. You have, its ok. I went through that phase when Edwards ran against Duke.

So the taxpayers will be on the hook to pay off student loans for losers that majored in art, literature, etc?

But I literally haven't. What particular issue has my view changed on?

Now the Patriot™ argument that libertarian-leaning people don't fit in their worldview? That's accurate b/c they're huge nanny state authoritarians in many ways, which I am not.

Tuition Reform is needed:

- Federal Loans should only apply for STEM related majors
- Wages should be garnished in the same manner as owing taxes

Basically the gubment has been subsidizing non marketable degrees. Kids are dumb and don't worry when we're 18, but they do care when they're 30.

When the gubment subsidizes anything, expect more of it. Like idleness, crime...

"Student loans" should have the university as a partner, not just recipient There's no incentive for schools to fix the problem as it is.

it's easy when it's not your money.

this is money owed to the USA...to you and I (assuming we are taxpayers [I sure the frick am]), I am curious as to how one person can forgive BILLIONS of dollars in loans.

regardless, this will do nothing but piss everyone off

This is ridiculous and slap in the face to everyone who paid their loans off.

If they wanted to cut the interest rates, I'd be all for that.

Not saying I disagree - but how could students be held accountable? Or if they fail out?

I had a scholarship to Tulane that was contingent upon me staying in the engineering program - that scared me so I didn’t take it - so should student loans be something like that?

For those not paying on their $250,000 gender studies degree loans, that's gonna cover the interest for about a month

Idk if anything has changed in the last year or two but I remember looking this up and people majoring in STEM fields has only gone up while people majoring in liberal arts has only gone down.
