Stop apologizing to "the kids". Which brats have been literally sucking on the welfare teat since birth, and who is it running college loans up to housing crash levels of unsustainable debt?
Sell the little b******s into labor camps until they pay back their bills, and stop subsidizing degrees in victim studies, and then come talk to me about who spent what.
If we only approved loans for STEM and medicine, and let the liberal arts, shysters, j-schools, and the other timewasting degrees fend for themselves, we'd pick up 20 IQ points, and lead the world in every relevant field. Those idiot degrees should be like plastic surgery and herbal medicine "colleges": pay your own way, and shut up about it.
Whatever you don't spend on college loans next year should be plunged into workstudy apprenticeships for hands-on dirty jobs, like welding, plumbing, mechanics, and the building trades, from laborers to heavy equipment operators.
If there's still anything left after that, give the military services a pay raise.
I'm fine with letting Spain or Peru excel in Spanish literature, and law schools should be pimping for candidates on midnight infomercials, since that's where most of them will be practicing their entire careers anyways.
Then pass a law in Congress that 1% (minimum) a year of the annual budget, increasing by 1% (minimum) a year, will be dedicated up front to paying down the debt, until that gets to 60% of the federal budget. Start looking for federal bureaucrats to fire to fund that year over year.
When the Commerce Department, Agriculture, education, and HHS Departments can hold meetings in a single conference room on alternate days, you're getting warmer.
And not for nothing, but the government should levy a 1% excise tax on Google, Microsoft, Amazon, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, et al, and use the money collected to directly fund a bounty for the actual severed heads of spammers like "Elizabeth Lucas", above, and require those internet giants to provide a website to display the trophies collected.
$50K/head, literally, ought to do the trick.
Stupid should hurt.
Anything leftover would do the same thing for robo-callers and telemarketers.
I'd check a box on my income tax to give to that fund every year.
