The left-wing Huffington Post quoted New York University professor Andrew Ross as telling the Occupy crowd in New York recently about the "harrowing personal testimony" and the "suffering and humiliation of people who believe their debts will be unpayable in their lifetime." The horror! So Ross and a variety of other Occupy miscreants have started up something called the Occupy Student Debt campaign, which hopes to get 1 million students to default on their college loans. "Student loan debt," they say, "is poisoning the pursuit of higher education." Obviously a guy who doesn't understand economics very well either. This is akin to McDonald's employee encouraging customers to not pay for their big macs. uhhh, dood, that's where your paycheck comes from. They don't pay their bill, you don't have a job. But once again, I am still thrilled that the Occupy movement is still getting press. It is becoming more and more apparent that it's just a bunch of self-indulgent brats, miscreants and professional malcontents looking for their "60s moment". They need a big dose of "Big Chill" and a trip to Somalia to get some perspective.
