I guess you are to young to remember the Vietnam War protests.

Before you ask. I was in the Army from June 1965 to June 1968. Got to work on nuclear missiles. Even got to go to McGregor Ranger and test fire a non nuclear version.

Totally different! Back then they were protesting the Nation's involvement in a war/police action. These idiots are protesting a group of people's right to live! And I don't mean the Palestinians.

So Biden orders the police in and the media loves him for it. Can you imagine if Trump would’ve done that? we would’ve never heard the end of it!

Stan, Thank you for your service. A protest is one thing, the destruction of property is another ….:)

Nearly 30% of the people arrested at Columbia were unaffiliated with the university and 60% of the arrests at City College involved people who weren't affiliated with that school, the NYC mayor said.
Most likely the non university protesters are from the same group of nut jobs that instigated the violence at the BLM protests.
FYI Columbia is a Right Wing University!

I was Stationed at Fort Belvoir in early 67 when the war protests were hot in DC. We were on stand by and I was amazed at the attitude of some of the guys, they were foaming at the mouth to get there are bust up those protesters!

Hi MJ!
I made off and on payments on my Snap-On Tools while I was working. But these student loans are in another league. We know a lady that went to college back in 90's. She borrowed 125 grand. No payments were needed until she graduated (although the loan continues to accrue interest), then after graduation she started making her 1000 monthly payment. She graduated in 1997. So, she's paid 27 years. She still owes almost 80 grand. She will NEVER get it paid off. These loans must have been set up by loan sharks, or credit card companies. Unlike other debt, you can't file bankruptcy on them. They follow you to the grave and will be taken out of your probate after your gone. The Biden loan forgiveness stipulates that borrowers must have made at least 10 years' worth of payments to qualify, and I'm hoping she does.

I paid for my kids college degrees by saving and restoring and selling classic cars along with them having part time jobs. They worked for their degrees along with my help.
I sold my 1967 corvette big block roadster which I purchased and restored which put the daughter through college with a little leftover cash for the son.
The kids remember riding in those cars and know what contributed to their degrees.
Since I paid for the kids college instead of letting the taxpayers pay for their degrees I should be able to deduct all those costs on my taxes or have Biden buy me a replacement 1967 corvette.
Biden has a 67 corvette so he should be able to sympathize with me having to sell mine in lieu of borrowing funds to fund college educations for my kids.
I won’t hold my breath for any of that to happen.
It just really bothers me to think taxpayers are funding deadbeat borrowers with college degrees who get off with loan forgiveness which the Supreme Court ruled unconstitutional.
They all signed off on a loan and now don’t have to pay.
I don’t think my bank would be so generous.
I call it buying votes with taxpayer money by politicians or outright theft from the treasury.
