this thread's initiator...otherwise, he would have known that the people receiving "Promised" loan forgiveness, were IN NO WAY "Moochers"...just doing my part to correct a complete mis-understanding by him, WestCoast...and apparently, you.
Now if you want to pursue that line of thinking still...tell us how it is wrong for someone to be promised that their college expenses would be underwritten, provided they followed through by working in the fields required (i.e. Teaching, Firefighting, etc.)...and they do as THEY PROMISED?
What is your definition of a "Moocher"?...and furthermore, do you believe it wrong to use government incentives to encourage much needed services for the benefit of local, state and federal public service interests?
In other words...what's your 'quip' for this issue ;-).
