    In fairness, one can be clear in telling a lie.

    Education is extremely important.

      Someone commented that when the statement begins with "Let's be clear," a big lie follows.

      "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

          True, I almost wrote ‘Congress has standing but they don’t want to challenge it” but was tired of typing

                SCOTUS heard arguments yesterday. From what I've read, it did not go well for the administration.

                  Government doesn't need to be in the student loan business, anyway.

                    Educational credentials for everybody is an important part of equity. We're long past the point where the credentials are meaningful in terms of how intelligent or able a person is, but people are not, by and large, intelligent or able enough to understand that. It's difficult not to feel sorry for young people who strive for that university degree, which their parents never got, who think it's worth so much, not knowing it's a meaningless symbol, dumbed down to nothing. I hope it at least helps them get a job. We'll have a nonsense job economy after AI takes over anyway. I shudder to think of the 'skills' it will take to get ahead in the corporate world, after all vestiges of ability are obsoleted.

                    Education is extremely important.

                      The awkward silence after he says, "That's what (SCOTUS) is there for, to follow the law."

                      What a maroon.

                      Wait, I'm still listening to him.... he registered for, applied for, and got into a college and only then did he run the numbers of what it would cost and was surprised. Smart man.
