Wrong. Committees don't determine anything. They debate. They craft. They submit for consideration. That's it.

Treated like the big banks....Okay,
until Warren stands up for student loans being discharged in bankruptcy court
without the unrealistic undue hardship clause, or a total bailout of them

Everything you mentioned. Our elected representatives should have knowledge or training on the issues they are responsible for.

It would make me sick if a student could roll up thousands of dollars in student debt majoring in a fake major like "black" or "women" studies and then get their debt discharged because they go bankrupt because they are not qualified to do anything but become a "community organizer" .

hmm, well you don't seem to mind when major institutions roll up trillions in debt and discharge it.

It is nearly impossible to get a student loan discharged as part of a bankruptcy. And who are you to determine what someone chooses to major in? That's their decision/mistake to make.

Well then who put Bachman on the House Intelligence Committee, or Lamar (Do meteors really exist?) Smith on the Science Committee?
