what do you do if the loans aren't being successfully paid back. What if, as a result, a large part of the population is stuck in repayment limbo because the institution and themselves did not make them automsatically successful. What if you actually implemented this plan (which this guy did not actually outline because he is a non-talking piece of political shit (Both sides guilty)) and it freed all of those people and actually unlocked them and they become more productive. In theory it works but thats a 750 billion dollar theory, kind of cheap based off the ludicrous spending these few admins have done, huge trump dax deductions expire 2025 americans.

However, even if my understanding on that IS wrong, these Department Secretaries, in my opinion, be required to answer any questions they are asked, or , at the very least, be fired immediately. The reason I say this , is because, as the top person in these government departments, the decisions they make, affect all Americans, either for the good or for bad, so by their refusing to answer, they are telling we the people, mind your own business, or, in other words, f--k-off.

Took seasonal jobs in the summer to save up for next semester’s tuition, books, supplies, etc. Graduated with ZERO student debt. But aged far faster than those who took up loans. Eventually those same people complained that their art history degree got them zero employment. Their niche social studies degrees got them hired to work at the local coffeee shop. Music theory didn’t help them pay off they of their debt. Parties so much that they graduated at the bottom of the class and affected who hired them. Or more precisely why they weren’t hired.
