You can’t get a $1 million mortgage if you make $100K/year.
You can’t get a $75K car loan if you make $35K/year.
The fact that you can get $250K in student loans for a college degree where you’re expected to earn $40K/year is unacceptable and a complete failure of US society.
We have 18 year old kids making financial decisions that all but guarantee a lifetime of economic insecurity.
These kids do not have the capacity to understand the implications of the debt they are taking on.
The corrupt university system has successfully convinced them going to college is the “smart thing to do” and that it will all work out.
These colleges should have to take the financial hit when they load up 18 years olds with hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt that basic math would tell you will never be repaid.
The federal government backstopping all these student loans does nothing but enable colleges to jack up their prices every year with zero accountability.
Shameful.
My problem with baseball is:
The BS offers the Tigers give Skubal.
The Astros didn't re-sign four star players that came up through the farm system.
The Mariners repeatedly not spending money while having a young core and turning a profit.
The fucking Boston Red Sox salary-dumping Mookie Betts.
The most money the Pirates have spent on a free agent for multi-year free agent is Ryan O’hearn. (2 years, 29 million)
The A's moving from Oakland and trading away Matt Chapman , Matt Olson, Sean Murphy, etc.
Could go on and on.
The problem with baseball is the owners.
Not the Dodgers.
On a night where the Red Sox got outbid for Alex Bregman, a reminder that the Red Sox have the fifth most expensive tickets in MLB, and rank 23rd in how much of that revenue they spend on players
It was an absolute honor to perform at the @AmericanFilm Institute Life Achievement Award: A Tribute To Francis Ford Coppola. In case you missed it, the show will re-air on @TCM Thursday, July 31 at 8pm ET / 7pm CT.
Elon is not on our side.
Trump is not on our side.
The Republicans are not on our side.
The Democrats are not on our side either.
The government and both parties exist to serve the rich and the war machine.
Hope that helps.
