Sure, there are two separate points that I conflated in my tweet. -Interest forgiveness as opposed to complete forgiveness given the incredible cost of total forgiveness. -System has generated an immense amount of predatory behavior.

I'm fine with cracking down on predatory behavior but it in no way is responsible for the student loan crisis, thus is a red herring in the discussion of loan forgiveness. Now, we are done.

Ok, man. I never said it was responsible for the crisis. I said it was the most objectionable part.

Yes, definitely the guy asking "what predatory behavior" in a discussion about student loans who holds the high ground.

So you're saying I doubt stuff, while you proceed serenely forward, untroubled by any pesky facts that contradict your thesis? :-)

Haha, no, I'm saying that you are very energetically arguing against a point I didn't make while very smugly congratulating yourself while not exactly demonstrating a great command of the subject.

But none of that is true. I guess I haven't deleted my tweets and blocked you yet, if that qualifies as "energetic". You've failed to engage with my central point (i.e. that loan processors aren't a major factor in the student debt crisis). And my command of the subject is great.

Your whole argument has been based on an initial mistake (you thought private companies owned the loans) that you tried to finesse by diverting to a complaint about third party processors that has very little to do with the loan crisis. Fairly poor command of the subject! :-)

I mean, I guess your choice is that either I made my point poorly or I am constantly lying, for some reason. What's bizarre about this is that we aren't even really arguing about anything. I'm not sure there's much disagreement on substance. It is twitter.

Well, I personally would love to stop!
