  • I was in higher education for ten years. I paid my way through using a combination of private savings, and eventually my father convinced my boss to pay for my education if he wanted me to work full time (I was a REALLY good employee at his small business). I fortunately graduated debt-free unlike most of my peers.

    Yes, I worked my way through, and I “earned” my degree the hard way (I made my boss millions through my own hard work for his company so I earned that degree).

    But, I still 100% support any kind of student debt relief for everyone struggling to pay off student debt. It’s called wanting a better life for my fellow human. That money in their wallet would be better spent in the local economy, not paid to some mega bank corporation swallowing up interest on student debt.

    I guess I just have compassion for my fellow human being over some ruthless corporation.





  • Who do you think writes the medical textbooks handed out to med students? Part of the scam is in the training how and what to prescribe. Many doctors will treat the symptoms while ignoring the cause. A proper healthy diet and exercise could cure a lot of things, but that’s not profitable advice to give.

    I know a woman who spent years fighting a bunch of skin problems and other issues, visiting all kinds of doctors. Finally she figured it out herself. She had turned herself entirely “vegan” for probably a decade or longer, choosing to forgo all meat, especially red meat. Guess what fixed her big issues? Eating a small filet of steak several times a month - her blood type and genetics required something that she was lacking in all her other vitamins/minerals/etc intake. Not saying eating red meat every day is good for the average person either, but just one example where her condition stumped doctors for several years before she chased down a wild theory herself and it worked.
