the reason jobs now require degrees IMO is because they want at least part of their workforce in debt bondage

Yep, that 10 year PSLF agreement is a steal, when liberals have $130K student loan debt (plus interest) for a music therapy degree.

Steal for the Gov. The actual rate of people passing off all those requirements is real low. Like single digits I think? You don't get chunks forgiven as you go. It's all or nothing after years of vague guidance.

I know it's all or nothing, and so do liberals. That's why they put up with at least 10 years of mundane government work. By the time they're eligible for debt discharge, they've sunken their tentacles into that lifestyle and don't want ANY changes to their 99% job security.

They even put onerous requirements for government jobs (like a degree), so that those who do become new hires will think the same way they do.

It’s actually a scam, something like 15 people only ever got that shit forgiven.

It wasn't intended to be a scam.

Liberals just got suuuuuper unlucky because the 10-year PSLF program started in 2007 ...and Betsy DeVos became Education Secretary in 2017 and slammed the brakes on the program lolol.

No, not true. Just in the first ever eligible cohort for it because most people were confused by the rules and lots of people who weren't eligible for it tried to do it. It's like that for anything. Now the rules are clearer and the operation the program is smoothed out so there's less denials for random technicalities or paper work problems.

Trump needs to get rid of that program. Fuck you, pay your debt. You want a free education for actually serving your country? The Army has the GI bill.

Or so... you know, you have well-rounded well-educated individuals.

Universities have only recently become liberal indoctrination centers
