College debt will be forgiven in this administration, so you have to be really dumb to pay for Lambda school, which isn't backed by the government and isn't going to be forgiven.

Lambda preys on the dumbest of the dumb, only dumb people are paying for school with their own money.

Here's another dumb thing: believing politicians that tell you what you want to hear.

I'm extremely skeptical of politicians. I give it a high probability chance of being forgiven, although I agree it's not a 100%. If it isn't, it will be inflated away through dollar devaluation and inflation. So, why would someone pay for their school and go to Lambda or have a high probability of school debt being forgiven going the traditional route? This isn't rocket science here. And your comment is quite insulting to assume that a commenter on HN would just 'believe' politicians or that I would want college debt forgiveness. I'm a libertarian. I don't want any bailouts, but I understand human nature and incentives so I know the bailout of college debt is coming.
