    As bad as that debt is, it would be worse if it just up and mysteriously disappeared one day.

    I hope folks are watching it like hawks.

    I like Doctor West as a person, he’s a fascinating guy, and a great speaker, but nobody in that much debt should be anywhere near elected office.

      I work in the finance/baking sector. I literally couldn’t get a job like this. Every bank or financial institutions HR departments would disqualify you on a background check.

          Ya, but the entire reason I wouldn’t be able to get a job is they view you as too vulnurable to manipulation and bribery. Sounds like things you want to avoid in a president or any political office holder…

              For president? I guess it’s geriatric number 1 who isn’t getting anything I want done. Geriatric sideshow clown who will grift as much as he can while letting his party fuck us, or possibly one of his disciples. Being better than a huge steaming load of dog poo isn’t really much to brag about. Thus is the state of American politics.
