Projecting your life upon others is remarkably naive.<p>He ignores the students who have to drop out and take care of the family when a parent gets sick or dies. He ignores the students who get sick or battle addictions or have mental health issues.<p>He ignores the parents who can't afford health care for their kids. The parents who have to cope with losing a spouse or a child. The parents who have to care for their aged parents.<p>When you're young, you don't tend to think about how close you are to losing everything. You don't think about how a car accident or a fire or cancer could completely derail your life and leave you with a debt that you can't manage.<p>He appears to have no empathy for people who lost everything by doing the safe thing: buying a house, working a job, and living the dream.<p>He also appears to not hold Wall Street up to the same standard as the 99%. Where's the part on his card that tells Wall Street it should have sucked it up and not asked for a bailout?<p>Isn't that what Occupy Wall Street is about? Wall Street getting a bailout while average people are told it's unpatriotic and un-American to ask for help?
His claims barely put him in the upper quartile. Being debt free is not a 1% thing....sorry pal.<p>In 2005, making 250k a year doesn't even put you in the top 1% of household incomes in the US.
