However, the first paragraph of his manifesto describes the 21st century perfectly.
I have one friend who is permanently disabled and spent 4 years trying to get his student loans forgiven. He gave up and fled the USA.
The courts have fought tooth and nail in the interest of their corporate overlords to prevent the Brunner test being invoked.
If more judges do the right thing and allow the Brunner test to actually be applied, it will have a significant impact.
Everybody should just stop paying their student debt. Let the system crumble.
Soldiers also get an (unfair) entitlement financially. They are allowed to get special mortgage terms backed by the VA, which allows them to walk away from mortgages with no penalty, no ding on the credit report. I'm surprised this doesn't exist for student loans.
America just cut our education budget by 10% ($7bn), while increasing our holy-war budget by $30bn. Considering we give $4bn per year to Israel to fight it's wars, I'm starting to wonder what the hell I get for the $50k I give Uncle Sam every year.
No education, no healthcare, no housing, but more war, more welfare for billionaires and big-oil/big-agriculture, but NOTHING for the average Joe.
Maybe it's time for a #calexit, or just a civil war.
