you might be interested to find that the hyperbole about everybody being in $100,000 student loan debt is not coming from the left but from the right which wants to dismantle higher learning even though they are the ones who drove tuition prices up by dismantling state funding of state universities!

you might be interested to find that the right is going to stay in power for the foreseeable lifespan of this country

the average student loan debt for a graduate is around $30,000. if the majority of college graduates go into default over that debt then the economy is hosed top to bottom and student loans, which the federal government just eats, aren't really going to be a top priority.

I never mean to be insensitive to people who are struggling with college debt and it is an issue but the idea that there is some bubble is simply not the case.

More people are suffering than should be but unemployment is lower and median income higher for college graduates. We simply aren't suffering as a population to the degree that scare articles make it out to be.

I mean, keep in mind that the public narrative about college debt in our society is largely driven by Mike Rowe dickheads who beat off to the image of a history major working as a barista because it affirms that they are actually smarter than them and it's just a bunch of liberal indoctrination with no actual rigor.

the car companies and large appliance companies are already screaming about how millennials aren't buying new big ticket items and the realtors are only going to keep getting louder about how we've gotta buy all the boomerhouses

that debt is certainly already loving up the economy
