Response to: The Punk Patriot Homework Assignment, Student Loan Mass Default (Part 1 of 3)

[Castorios]

zig, could you indeed simply emigrate to another country and run away from massive loans? If I wasn't tied down and owed 50K+ USD with no job, I would find a way to leave for sure.

[zigzigerblat]

@Castorios Get a passport and leave. If they don't let you get a passport, you just need to get current with the loan.. then leave. Once in Deutschland, Finnland or Dennmark, go after the ladies and find love. Love conquers all..  even massive student loans. : )

I bet one of those equal money girls would help you escape a financially oppressive land.

Money will not collapse our country, We are people not a financial system.

[zigzigerblat]

@jadedfeatures0777 I agree. When we talk about collapse of a country, I think we are definitely talking about financial. Money is not everything.

Health is Wealth, Step it up man.

i can almost guarantee you have several hernias in your colon. Most Americas do these days.

Advice: Get your waist to 33', eat fruits and veggies, wild greens (dandelion)

U will then feel great, have energy, and you wont suffer ill health.

Ciao bro, and yes student loans r a tickin timebomb.

[zigzigerblat]

@odin422 Wow, I don't know wether to love you or hate you. This post is good advice. The PM you sent me sounded phsycho. Maybe I just didn't understand what you were saying in the PM.

I promise, I will get my waist down to 33 or 34. My goal is to lose 70 more lbs. I already lost 50! I am working on the student loan thing.

[MattiFreeman1]

thanks for the video and exposing the impracticality of our current system

[zigzigerblat]

@MattiFreeman1 I am the model of why our system is broken. More videos to come.

[ANDREWGABLE1]

Cool Video - I trusted the system to do what is best for me. I got a loan, worked hard, got my degree, entered the system - and when I turned around, the system was no where to be seen. Meaning they basically fucked me and now I had to attempt to "make it" in the system with my degree where what I encountered was startling in that there was no support anywhere, and if anything the way things were set up actually prevented me from succeeding at all - I also support an Equal Money System .

[zigzigerblat]

@ANDREWGABLE1 Same here. Here is the advice which I have learned the hard way. Get an income based repayment once you run out of forbearance. Ignore money and take on work that looks the best on your resume or that you like most. Work independently and for free if needed. When you work for free to help people start businesses or increase sales or whatever, they are grateful and will give glowing recommendations or say whatever you tell them to. Before long you get real job offers..

(2) It is definitely detrimental to all to see and acknowledge the current conditions we are simply forcing ourselves to accept due to the structure and design of the current monetary system. Thus the necessity of Equal Money for All to grant access to education as basic self-support readily given to have an equal starting point within the system, where we no longer have to survive but actually LIVE to improve our living conditions without being hooked on the payroll for a lifetime. thx4sharing!

[zigzigerblat]

@MarlenLife amen! (nonreligious-ly speaking) Access to the highest and best education and healthcare is a right and obligation. Democracy or representative republics fail in the absence of an educated populous as our is now.

[MarlenLife]

@zigzigerblat That is the Equality Standard indeed - Actual Democracy at last that is perfectly plausible by majority rule.

[MarlenLife]

We definitely value Education as first tool to Equally empower all through granting access to education. This is available the moment we have the ability to create an equality-based system through Equal Money so that there is no DEBT as starting point for people that are born into this world. What you describe is indeed the perfect trap to keep one enslaved to pay a career that you simply then work to pay back for having virtually no chance for use of capabilities due to underemployment.

[Zoink555]

I took about $600 loan for books years ago and it said on small print to only pay it back when you get a job. I never got a job and never was going to get a job just did it for fun. ;-)

[Zoink555]

Most students over here these days are Asians.

[zigzigerblat]

@Zoink555 They need to improve economic access to higher education for the locals as well. Everyone needs access. I am happy for any group that values education, but I want to make sure people don't use that as an excuse to cut funding that effects everyone.

PS. I was just at your channel last night. Your feud is quite engaging. That other guy is crazy.

[Zoink555]

@zigzigerblat That idiot loves the attention so I deleted the videos so I don't give him free publicity. ;-)

[zigzigerblat]

@Zoink555 That may be a smart move. However, a good rivalry can bring you publicity too. It's like a rapper war. Tupac and Biggie Smalls. Although, it didn't turn out too well for those two, I am sure it is not that serious.

[Zoink555]

@zigzigerblat Some new stalking laws came out here yesterday. Things things in the laws and the junk this idiot is doing will for sure get himself locked up one day.

[Zoink555]

@Zoink555 Don't forget the Thing things hahahaaha

[zigzigerblat]

@Zoink555 I don't think I quite get what your saying?  What do you mean?

[Zoink555]

@zigzigerblat I was just having a laugh at my writing hahaha - don't worry about it. ;-)

[twochordcool]

Very well thought out, intelligent and "gentlemanly" reply.

There was this moron making comments over at Huffington Post in which he stated that nobody should be getting unemployment insurance! I was like, YOU DO REALIZE that we are in the middle of an economic crisis right now, we have a rate of like 20% unemployed or underemployed - and these people have student loans, rent payments, families to feed, cars to put gas in, insure and sometimes repair????

[zigzigerblat]

@twochordcool Why thank you! I have come upon an idea that brings me great peace. If these loud mouthed people get their way, you are going to have one hell of an angry mob on the streets demanding much more than we have now. So, go ahead take more from me. Take it all. "Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose"

[soulchild3751]

Thank you for this explanation!

[etzel33]

Sorry dude, looks like you're a slave just like the rest of us. Only with that degree, maybe you can work in the Big House, be a house slave. My kid's in the same boat.

[zigzigerblat]

@etzel33 LOL. Unfortunately, I'm not a house slave. I wish I was.  Some day.

[Airphel]

This is a very real problem, not just in the future, but now. I have quite a few friends that live in Europe, and seriously, they all get to go to school for free, and with discounts on things like food and living space for the time they are in school. Am I jealous? YES! I literally can't go to school RIGHT NOW, I don't have the money or credit, and can't afford to miss time from work to go. Quite a problem we're facing that our future is screwed.

[zigzigerblat]

@Airphel I almost didn't have time to go to school when I did, due to work. Now I think it would be impossible. If you saw all of the videos, you know my advice. Study your ass off, work out like a maniac and enlist in the Navy or Airforce with high scores. Do the math, the pay is really good and the education and healthcare more than pay for it. Whatever it takes to get your education... WHATEVER IT TAKES.
