Beware of Bag Snatchers?


Increasingly as I see the "narratives" from progressives, liberals and conservatives (and their various media bull horns) I am frustrated.  Student loans are not the burden of the US government.  Banks, contracted by and for the US government have already made billions and billions off of student loans.

And don't forget that besides the interest over the life of PAID and unpaid LOANS are many many fees.   We are continuing to be fed a line of bull about the costs of education (and healthcare, and Medicaid... and ....).  Non tax paying "not for profits" - companies working on behalf of the feds (education, healthcare and Medicaid) are raking it in.  Drive to any city and pass the colleges, pass the banks, pass the insurance carriers.... none of them are hurting.  Stop jacking the poor or the average citizen and start making the billionaire non profit companies (churches are included, political action companies ... and on and on I could go) pay their fair share.  Stop making criminals out of corporations (for profit as well) who use a 70,000 page tax code to legally get out paying a friggin dime in taxes.  Most of this cost crap would be entirely resolved if we quit jumping on band wagons and started looking at the source of the laws and of who is getting paid (and who is paying).  Things have got to change.
