Do you have Thomas’ email so I can forward my denial?
Gail, keep tuned in and we will be announcing another group call soon. We are confirming folks and will post here when details are available.
Dear Thomas,
Thank you for the message.
I believe I understand the characteristic of unlimited possibilities occurring due to the constantly morphing legal and financial situation in the US.
It would be great to see lawsuits that name every individual actor from Betsy DeVos to every person getting a paycheck from every little strip-mall predatory for-profit vocational school. Since these are crimes committed by bad faith actors, I think lawsuits are ultimately the correct response to the actions of all of the people and businesses involved at every level.
Lawsuits are the best way to both confront and describe these crimes from my perspective. A lawsuit addressing the criminal nature of DeVos’s mass denial of DTR applications should be immediate. But the multiple types of coercion occurring throughout all of the different education sectors needs to be broadcast. I am sure that the scandal of fraud and bid-fixing for the online public education platform contracts is just around the corner.
The legal profession is methodical by nature but there is no point in a genteel public approach to the savage level of fraud consuming the US business culture. The power of predatory actors in the federal government is solidifying barriers to accountability at an alarming pace. As is the case with many other sectors of the culture under assault, there is really no such thing as a “too aggressive” public awareness campaign or legal action to confront fraud right now. The pace at which individuals are experiencing economic fraud is accelerating at a frightening pace. It seems normal now to receive notices of identity theft.
I just want the advocacy agencies to think in a much more aggressive pro-active and confrontational way. I appreciate the work of the Harvard associated individuals. I hope they understand that this moment may require both a lawsuit that confronts the personal criminality of political appointees and a very direct media campaign against this predatory federal administration and the criminals who benefit. I would hope that the experiences of people inside the education department are being investigated.
Thank you for your work.
Cheers,
Ben
Yes. Great!
I filed my borrow defense application in 2019, and have yet to hear a decision. I followed up yesterday to check the status and was told that my application is next in the queue. No tentative date for review could be shared.
Any feedback or guidance, please let me know. I would like to join the call.
when are you going to have another meeting about private student debt?
I live in Georgia, one of the states that sued Navient. I fit the criteria for the loan cancellation, yet Navient says they will not cancel my debt
