But Obama has said, on a number of occasions, that he is not a socialist. Silly me, I thought that when the government takes over automobile companies, banks, and the entire health care system of a country, it’s called socialism. I guess I was mistaken.

What’s to reform? Borrow money for school- pay it back. Borrow money for a home- pay it back. Want healthcare- pay for it yourself...

baraq also said that he was not a bolshevik.
The bolsheviks had a nasty history of government wide thuggery and political enemies dissapearing.

Student loans are a way to transfer wealth from the middle class to the elite.

Perhaps it would be worth it if the end results were better but how many are getting worthless degrees with no hope of ever paying back the loans?

It is a rigged system.

Despite his Ivy League “education”, Obama has never heard of an old saying:

“Know Thyself”

(of course, he may have “known himself” and realized he’d darned well
should do all he could to not honestly reveal his true self to the
majority of voters)
