>I have never been in debt. I have never lived beyond my means - even when I was a student with no car or TV and was making $1 per hour as a waitress. Why should I be punished for that by rewarding someone else for not being as responsible as I am? Where do you think the money comes from to forgive these loans? It gets paid for by higher prices for everyone or higher taxes or more borrowing by the government. You think that 20 trillion in debt is too low? Seems pretty stupid to reward bad behavior.

I thought you said you did not pay medical insurance until you were 40, I am wrong?
