I chuckled when I read this. I'm planning on going into law, but I do understand your animosity.

Animosity? Yes, but that is not the reason I posted that response.

The reason I posted that response is that debt for education CANNOT be cleared by a bankruptcy.

People wouldn't work if they felt they weren't getting paid enough

Another naive response. People work because they must do so to survive in this fucked up system. What kind of social vacuum do you live in? thats why some people have to work 2 or 3 jobs and never have a life. Not because they "feel" that they arent being paid enough...but because they KNOW they arent being paid enough and have to work much more just to make ends meet.

look at people who get laid off and refuse to work minimum wage jobs and use well fare.

Right, so if I have two car payments, a house payment, and 2 children, me losing my $25 an hour job...I should go directly to a minimum wage job and be glad that the rich "job proivders" are taking care of the system. And if I work hard enough then maybe I too will be rich one day.

As I have said before, what kind of social vaccum do you live in?

BTW - its "welfare", not "well fare". You also seem to be completely ignorant to what welfare is anyways. Welfare is an insurance that has been PAID FOR by the person who is collecting it in most all of the cases. If I work 20 freaking years paying into welfare, and some scum bag decides to move my job to the philipines to pay children 2% of my original pay to do the work I once did...then you mean to tell me I should NOT take advantage of the welfare insurance I have paid into and purchased?

I have a suggestion. How about you actually do your homework on a subject before you type your ignorance upon this board for all to see and cringe at.

*Bet you dont know jack shit about unemployment benefits as well*

Lastly, it reflects a lot about a person's character when they dictate their feelings of someone based on a simple difference in opinion.

Then clearly you havent the foggiest notion between "opinion" and "fact". It is quite obvious that you are extremely ignorant to the social safety nets of America, and even basic economic system in America. Just like your mentioning of predictions of gas prices. Does that INCLUDE the billions we give annually in oil subsidies, will we be removing them? Or did you not know anything about such govt plans?

The ad hominem attacks are amazing in this thread.

Especially the ones you have been posting:
"On a forum which celebrates intellectual conversation, I'm amazed at how many people have the socialist mindset. "
Ad-hom and blanket statement: All socialists are not intellectuals

educate the poor and you solve the problem

THIS, is why I keep calling you naive.
