Yep, the only way they lose if a single payer system was setup and it wasn't. Now they can insure everyone and assume no risk! The government is now responsible in covering that.

So I guess I am a cruel heartless Republican.
I don't think you realize how vast the public sector is, or that there are other jobs besides "paper pushers". Many holders of these loans work in health care. My understanding is that private non-profits are included in some of the loan forgiveness.

Well excuse the hell out of me, well good for them if they are. I meant people who are IN SUPPORT OF THIS HEALTH CARE BILL!!! Hell I think health care needs to be reformed, but NOT the way the gov't did it! They should have done tort reform and let people buy across state lines!

Present me with a fact and I'll debate you..but you don't have any..Source something..A political hack list unsourced assertions and asks an opponent to prove or disprove it..I don't play those raindeer games..LOL.
