What have you learned getting people to quit school, giving them $100,000, and then how many parents call you and get
00:00:05
really upset that their kids are quitting school? I think the universities are far worse than I even
00:00:09
thought when I started this thing. You know, the student debt was 300 billion in 2000, it's uh it's basically uh close
00:00:16
to two trillion at this point. And then if you look at it by cohort, if you graduated from college in 1997, 12 years
00:00:24
later, people still had student debt, but most of the people had sort of paid it down. By 2009, the median person had
00:00:32
more student debt 12 years later than they graduated with. I do think a lot of the students got ripped off. So, I think
00:00:38
there should be some kind of broad um student debt forgiveness at this point who should pick up the 10. It's not just
00:00:44
the taxpayers. It's the universities and it's the the the bond holders. The bond
00:00:50
holders and and and the universities. If you just make it the taxpayers, then the
00:00:55
universities can just charge more and more every no incentive to reform what whatsoever.
