Make personal finance a required course in high schools. 17 and 18 year olds do not know what it means when they sign up for a student loan. It's just a number to get them into classes at that age.

This is a key thing IMO. Kids taking loans that they do not have an appreciation for what they are in for. At current tuition costs of state schools etc it is currently very possible to come out with a degree and not be completely buried by debt.

Exactly what they wanted. Propaganda. Legitimacy.

And now it's NK negotiating from the position of strength, and not the US. Donald got played, and we're weaker as a result.

In Case anyone was wondering, Ivanka won’t be hit with daddy’s tariffs on imported goods from China. Nothing to see here

How the heck can anyone figure out what is and isn't getting hit when you tried to read this legalese-gobbledy-gook.

Then again, reading Annex B, I'm hoping Ivanka isn't importing "nuclear reactors".


Reading Annex B, it reads like heavy industrial machinery, all flavors. Is that by plan so tDon can claim "national defense". If you can't build milling machines and go to war, you don't have milling machines to build machines of war.

BTW, the kids reunited with their families yet? Any of them?

Can someone show me one kid who's back together with their parents? I mean, the administration knows where they all are, and everything.

No, he can't. cause Donnie said it was a done deal. No need to worry.

Going back on that now makes him look weak. And Donnie can't look weak. His only other option now is war. Get ready to beat the drums. Johnnie Bolton will tell you when.

Sure the 1st applies. it applies for the protester, and it applies for the owner.

Inside the restaurant only the owner's ideals matter. The owner is not the government; the 1st is of no consequence.

Why claim done deal? To force the other side to stand up or renege in the spotlight.

At least tDon didn't renege (this time).

Nope. But they've at least found some of the parents.

Here's one, but the government didn't do sh** to reunite them. It was a social worker in NYC and mothers across the nation who car pooled a woman across the country to get her kid.

The same reason he lied about the crowd at his innaguration. But, by all means, keep feeding yourself the 3d chess delusion.

LOL renege on WHAT?!?!?! Do you think the Norks really agreed to full denuclearization? Trump was LYING OUT HIS A55. You are acting like these things actually happened, give it a rest.

Re: POTUS: 45.37: The Earth is Flat and the Babies Are Crying

What would you guys talk about if Trump wasn’t POTUS? Round and round it goes. Carry on

We would talk about who the President is and whether they are doing a good job. This might be hard but try and keep up.

Of course he was lying.
It's one of the oldest negotiating tactics in the book: race to the camera.

You come out with a "meh" understanding but claim "Duckies-and-bunnies! All is well!"
When the other side says "Um, no", you cry "They reneged!" and you claim to be the good guy who negotiated in good faith.

Look at Trump's history. It's one of his base plays.


Once you understand that Trump is a used car lot owner and a used car salesman all his plays make sense. Thing is, people trust used car salesmen more than Congress.

The bank is to assume you have anything other than good faith (meaning intent to repay the loan)? The bank is to somehow just "know" that you're planning to swindle them and not give you the loan. And how, pray tell, are they to make this assumption.

The same way they do when you take out a car loan or a mortgage?

Banks dont lend indiscriminately for anything else EXCEPT student loans. When they do they tend to get burned. (see: 2008 crisis)

Banks dont tend to assume people will pay back their loans, in fact they assume a certain percentage wont in normal circumstances. Not so with school loans. They assume almost no risk (because of lack of bankruptcy) so they just throw out money at will and never worry.

Re: POTUS: 45.37: The Earth is Flat and the Babies Are Crying

yeah, I'm perfectly ok with it. They ignore the voices of their constituents, either barring from their offices, or staging town hall events where only their party members are allowed to attend, the only voices they do pay attention to are the ones handing them money.

They need to hear the voices of the majority of the people. They need to understand that what they are doing aren't just economic and social exercises in textbooks, that the things they do have real impacts on the lives of real people. They are not king-like chosen ones ruling over the peasantry, they work for us. We pay their salaries. Time they started remembering that. Time for the bubble to start being popped.


If this is what it takes to do so, then so be it. Better than blowing up their limousines with a car bomb.

Yep. If they gave people a voice I would agree with Brent on having a private life but these clowns do everything they can to avoid hearing from people who disagree with them. As such, they forfeit such considerations.

Because he's an oafish braggart and it's all about him. None of those other presidents could get a NK deal done, but Trumpy did in just one meeting. The greatest deal, the bestest ever. Cause he's a deal-maker dont'cha know? He makes deals.

They dont even know how many people they have. The count went from 2000 to 3000 out of the blue.

The articles coming out about the 5 year olds in court is just ridiculous. A 5 year old isnt allowed to decide what parent they want to live with in court but they are supposed to understand the rules of Asylum and other types of immigration under the Geneva Convention? Full grown adults with degrees have issues with it...
