Hey Folks!
Today’s action:
-Alan Hey Folks!
Today’s action:
Great Thanks to Martha (even again!), Alric, Pamela, Jon, Althea, Dimetria, Sean, Lydia, Lisa, Ned Louis, Greg and Mike for their recent contributions! Please help with all these, folks. We need you right now! Sincerely, Alan 6/11/2024 Forum, Presidential CampaignHey Everyone!
Here is the Presidential Candidate forum that we did over the weekend. Got a bit chippy at the 1hr, 3 minute mark :-). We're hoping/expecting to get some real media coverage in the not-too-distant future. Please donate to the campaign if you can, folks! We're hoping that 100 people will donate $10 or more in the next few days. We can do much, MUCH better than this, though. The more support, volunteers, and just normal people spreading the word about the campaign we can get, the more likely it is that we'll get the student loan problem ACTUALLY solved before the election! How far we will go is ENTIRELY UP TO YOU! Think about it! Sincerely, Alan Sponsored by Collinge For President. 6/9/2024 Special Event Tonight, 7pm EST.Here is the link to the Presidential Forum we're speaking at tonight, 7pm EST :
https://youtube.com/live/TkV60BmF4Ys?feature=share By all means, jump on, ask a question or make a comment! Also, we're still needing 7 people to donate $20 or more for this week. Will you please help? Hope to see you all there tonight- Alan Everyone-
We just broke this news. Older people now GREATLY OUTNUMBER younger people with student loans, both in numbers, and is average debt size. Please help us spread the word about it!
➡️➡️ We still need 18 people to donate $10 or more this week. Will you please help? http://www.studentloanjustice.org/donate Great Thanks to Victoria, Sophia, Sharla, Patrick, Pamela, Naida, Garrett, Madeline, Bill. Cynthia, Victoria, John, Lisa, Anne Marie, Jeannie, Elena, Elizabeth and Jon for their recent contributions. We're doing an online forum tomorrow night as a part of my presidential campaign. I'll have a link for you tomorrow. Very serious about this campaign btw... Talk to you tomorrow- Alan 6/7/2024 Breaking News…Important!Everyone-
We just put this article out. Older people (>35) with student loans now outnumber younger people (<35) by over two million people, and they owe far more than the younger group despite having borrowed less. This is despite all the cancellations that Biden is bragging about, which have largely gone to people over 35 years old.
I still have to ask for donations, folks. We need 20 people to donate $20 or more to cover our expenses for this week. Will you please help? 🙏 ➡️ http://www.studentloanjustice.org/donate Fundraising has been exceptionally difficult for us this year, particularly since the repayment pause ended. I truly hope that you see the value in this group, and want us to continue this fight. I am hopeful that we’ll be able to secure more monthly recurring donations in the coming days and weeks, which will take a lot of the pressure off… Great Thanks to Garrett, Madeline, Bill. Cynthia, Victoria, John, Lisa, Anne Marie, Jeannie, Elena, Elizabeth, Jon, Lara, Jorge, Dorie, Candis, Donald and Mark for their recent contributions. You have no idea how important, and appreciated your support is! Best Regards, Alan Ladies and Gentlemen-
We urgently need 34 people to donate $20 or more today to cover this week's expenses. Will you not please help? ➡️ http://www.studentloanjustice.org/donate This group will not survive without your modest financial support, and that would be a shame, given all that we’ve accomplished, and all that we are poised to get done. We’re currently down to near zero in our operating fund. Will you not help make this fundraising a bit easier on us so we can focus on the battle at hand?! Great Thanks to Lara, Jorge, Dorie, Candis, Donald, Juanita, Naida, Garrett, Russ, Angelia, Naida, Lisa, Dyann, and Mark for their recent contributions. There is a reporter from a large, well-known international news company seeking to interview people who have received student loan cancellation. If you fit this, and you’re willing to be interviewed, please let me know-
Sincerely, Alan Hey Everyone:
So you know... The root of the skyrocketing cost of colleges is that there is a nearly unlimited revenue source in federal #studentloans for the colleges to draw from, which predictably, leads them to raise their prices unchecked. The root of this lies in the fact that the government has found a way to make a profit on the loans, EVEN in the case of defaults, so it is happy to shovel out as much as is wanted. The root of THAT ( risk-free profit for the government) is the fact that nearly every standard consumer protections has been removed from the loans (bankruptcy rights, most notably, but there are many others), which ensures that the government will always make a profit- and a HUGE ONE- from these loans (many decades of White House Budget Data show that the government actually makes a profit on defaulted student loans, which is incredibly and unprecedented). So...THE CORE OF THIS PROBLEM IS THE REMOVAL OF THESE FUNDAMENTAL CONSUMER PROTECTIONS! The Founders called for uniform bankruptcy laws (aka uniform bankruptcy RIGHTS) ahead of the power to raise an army and declare war in the US Constitution. That this has been uniquely stripped from these loans is the ACTUAL, TRUE CORE of this problem. With standard bankruptcy rights returned, the Department of Education will be forced to cancel student loans en masse- perhaps even entirely- without anyone even having to file. They will HAVE to pre-emptively cancel loans to prevent the largest wave of bankruptcy filings in the nation's history. Remember: when people file bankruptcy, they usually bring ALL of their debt into it, which includes credit cards. If bankruptcy were returned tomorrow, ALL of the banks would rush to our side, and DEMAND that the loans be cancelled so as to protect their own credit card, and other loans. This is the TRUE POWER of bankruptcy, and why we are fighting so hard for it. It's not obvious unless you think about it, but it is absolutely true. Whatever your opinion of the Founders of this country might be, they knew something of fundamental importance when they called for a uniform bankruptcy system ahead of the power to raise an army, declare war, and ALL of the rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights. This student loan scam is exactly the sort of tyranny they were trying to protect the country against. If we lose this battle, folks, they can and they WILL make bankruptcy similarly non-dischargeable for ALL consumer debt! I hear increasing murmurs from Washington about extending this to medical debt...but there is no limit to how far they will take this. They'll remove bankruptcy rights from everyone but the billionaires, corporations, banks, if they are allowed to. You want to know why we fight so hard for the return of uniform, constitutional bankruptcy right to #studentdebt? This is why. Please Help Us Fight! |
