@Celtics_PRam@CynicalPublius a loan is something you have to pay back, it's not a scholarship. regardless of what age you are, if you take out a loan, the first thing you should know is how you're going to pay it off. no different than a mortgage or car payment.
@Celtics_PRam@CynicalPublius I just disagree that the ENTIRE solution is $ from the govt. we likely disagree philosophically. I'm saying PART of the answer is that life's unfair and the govt will never be efficient so learn from that. part is also govt help but you cant ever rely on that
@Celtics_PRam@CynicalPublius both can be true at the same time...take responsibility for yourself by reading what you're signing before you sign it, do a little critical thinking as to how you're going to pay it back, and the government should and has been giving plenty of leeway to paying it all back
@Celtics_PRam@CynicalPublius I'm certainly not going to defend the banks nor the government, that's why I'm always going to lean towards taking responsibility for one's own actions and never rely on the government to fix much of anything.
@Homesteadgourme@memeticsisyphus better use of the metaphor is that it's a queue line that properly wraps back and forth so as to more efficiently use the available space for more people to stand in line...what he's suggesting is making a straight line right out of the building
@memeticsisyphus except that doesn't help anyone at the deli, except the cutter...in real life traffic, using both lanes and zipper merging allows better use of space, therefore limiting the negative effect the building line of traffic would have further back down the road
@Celtics_PRam@CynicalPublius many certainly are, but it should be a good lesson for the country that nothing is free and that maybe loans should be somewhat dependent on the likelihood of economic return the degree will help produce.
@Celtics_PRam@CynicalPublius things are definitely tough right now but not historically bad. if you are either a home owner over the last 6-10+ years or are invested in the stock market (401k or otherwise), you've done well in those respects and that's a pretty big portion of the population.
@LynAldenContact only if you're allowing a Massie type to define it. America 1st means our leaders should make decisions that have a net benefit to Americans as a whole. the timeline for the benefit obviously varies. we elect officials to make the decisions & we judge those decisions by voting
@bungarsargon this is akin to @GadSaad's Suicidal Empathy...Batya's bleeding heart has her supporting something that is the very cause of the pain she's trying to speak against
@GovPressOffice I'm so confused? so we're making fun of them doing well known accepted and used warm up routines? I know for a fact most every track team runs this warm up every day, that and high step and lunge, etc.
@bonchieredstate@LarryOConnor please see Virginia's Jay Jones before you get too confident in a Platner loss... I still have a hard time accepting that he's my AG
