    When do they get credit card debt forgiveness, or mortgage forgiveness. A free electric car!
    Comrades will have to do more to kill freedom to advance to grand prize rounds.

    Stupid part is only a handful will ever play in the grand prize rounds but they don’t get this fact…

    Thankfully, should this atrocity pass the inevitable constitutional challenge (and I don't see how it can), the program appears to be opt-in. So, it won't be forced on me, when I'm already about a year away from having my own student loans paid off entirely. (It would have happened much sooner, but I took on my wife's outstanding college loans 15 years ago, which required me to reduce the monthly payments on my own loans.)

    The trouble there is finding someone to hire him who understands that a degree does not equate to any specific level of intelligence or usefulness.
    This! Even a liberal arts degree used to mean the holder possessed a certain level of intelligence and capacity for learning and independent thought

    Now most degrees just seem to indicate how programmable a good little drone one is, by design I suspect

    About 38 or 39 years ago I met an actual PhD. that degreed in the color orange. He was a Dr. of Orange. Square business, and from one of our most prestigious engineering schools. I was having beer and wings and rings at a campus bar after graduation when we met. I was with my friend who just received his BA in graphic design. He now is in middle management at a machinist type factory south of Southbend.

    In an effort to support fairness while not forcing the government to print EVEN MORE money, I would accept my $10k in ammunition drawn from the already massive stockpiles the government already has
