And then weigh pros and cons, and if you still feel that this program, vital to so many successful and productive people, should be terminated...so be it, but do it based on facts, not high pitched verbal word cabbage.

I still believe the lazy ones are those who simply want to erase things from existence with no discussions.
I'm confused. I don't think my statements were incorrect. Federal employment qualifies for student loan forgiveness of up to $60,000. OPM calls them loan payments, not loan forgiveness, but it amounts to the same thing. My only other point is my opinion that I think having a federal job is more of a benefit to the employee than to the Government. We don't need to offer an incentive to get people to accept federal jobs. They are in high demand.
