SC you sound ridiculous you know that? Your argument holds no water. Your argument is, airlines filed for bankruptcy; therefore, I should be able to file for bankruptcy.

You assume that filing for bankruptcy means you walk away from your responsibilities. This is not the case.

Do you think all of those airlines that filed for bankruptcy had zero debt after filing bankruptcy? No, their debt was reorganized and renegotiated. Their contracts were renegotiated. Which is the same thing that is going to happen to you if you go to bankruptcy court. Why do you think that companies like DAL and UAL still have debt on their books? (they each owe roughly $12 billion in long-term debt)

Just because one lawyer argued that it wasn't constitutional, back in 1975, doesn't mean that it is.

Student loans can be discharged. I repeat, STUDENT LOANS CAN BE DISCHARGED! So the argument of equal protection is not sound.

Please answer these questions ...

Do you have cable or satellite TV?
Do you have a smartphone/data plan?
Do you have a flat screen tv?
Do you have an Xbox or other gaming device?
Do you have more than one car?
Are you driving a new or newer car?
Do you have a car payment? Motorcyle, 4-wheeler or similar toy payment?
Do you go out partying, drinking/smoking?
Do you regularly go to the movies, shopping, spending money?
Always have to have new clothes?
Do you spend your days off working having fun rather than working a second or third job?

If so, then you are clearly able to repay your debt.

It makes me sick that people like you are trying to ruin what makes this country great. I grew up in humble beginnings where my father made just over $20k/year. We did all sorts of things to get by. But I knew that getting good grades in school would be the way out. I received student loans back in the mid-late 90's and I completed my obligations; although it took me a bit longer than I wanted it to.

If you spent your time trying to figure out a way to increase your compensation rather than wasting it on ways of avoiding your obligations, we wouldn't be reading your ridiculous posts.

Again, stop the entitlement and wealth redistribution mentality.
