It is relevant. If you didn't pay for your kid's college and you're supporting a program where someone other than you is forced to do so, you're just like the rest of the freeloading parents that refuse to meet their responsibility. You keep proving that I'm a better person and a better parent than you.
On a side not, if you took out loans and won't them back, hopefully that will ruin your credit.

Maybe yourself? After all, you seem really bitter about Affirmative Action.
That's because you know that your privilege is what carried you, not your work ethic. So you take it as a personal affront that anyone dare question the fantasy of hard work and perseverance you crafted for your character, but you secretly know and accept that you didn't work hard, you didn't persevere, you lived a lucky life thanks to your inherent privilege.
You just have to posture on the internet because it makes you feel better to think that other people think you are a rugged individualist because you don't.

Thomas Jefferson owned slaves who literally did work for him."I find the harder I work, the luckier I get" - often accredited to T. Jefferson

Yep! I agree, that if you currently owe for your student loan- It must be paid. Just as if you would pay back a loan for your car payment.
I'm in this argument as an advocate to extend Public School all the way to an Associates degree. And I laid out ideas on how to accomplish that without any help from the Federal Government!
I am a Democrat- but I am no Bat-Shit-Crazy Democrat that wants the Federal Government to pay for anyone's education- or their student loans!
How so? I never needed affirmative action. My white privilege somehow caused me to work hard in state undergrad and professional schools as well as in the real world.
As far as affirmative action, that's only a set up for failure later on. So in a way it's not even fair to those who receive it.

It does tend to set them up for failure later on. If not in school then in the real world. I had students in my professional school class that were there only because of AA.
A couple dropped out of the profession, one flunked out, one or two had to repeat a yr. (torture!) and the most successful became a full time instructor at my school. Instructors probably don't earn 1/5 what the avg. self employed pros do in the real world in my profession - "Those that can, do. Those that can't , teach."
