No one had standing in the right to gay bash decision.
The captured jurists in the majority disregarded the clear language of the law that gave the executive clear discretion in disposing of federal student loans when they brutally botched the student loan case.
There is no consistent theory involved. The conservatives on the Supreme Court hate America, its people and the very idea of the place.
Some people believe that students who'll be leaving university and becoming millionaires should be paying for their own education, not taxpayers.
Why don't you own your beliefs instead of ascribing them "some people"?
Some people do.
Some people don't.
No 1 radio host believes: "Scholarships for the best and brightest, we need top surgeons, vets, scientists etc...all others should pay".
Me?
What do I believe?
I believe in "user pays", for almost everything, but that the 'pays' should be reasonable, fair, equitable.
Education;
There should be a certain number of scholarships for the best and brightest, and everyone else pays.
In my world student loans don't have to start being repaid until the student starts earning $48,361 pa.
The rate or repayment at that salary...$48,361 - $55,836 is 1%.
As salary increases, the rate increases. $55,837 - $59,186 is 2%.
And so on.
Never earn above $48,360, you never pay anything off Your HECS debt [student loan].
That seems fair.
But, the only way your HECS debt gets wiped is at death.
And, every year the debt is indexed to inflation, and increases by that inflation amount...this June HECS debts will increase by 7%.
The average HECS debt is between $20,000 and $50,000.
