WASHINGTON, D.C. - (AP) - A bill that would push private lenders out of the federal college loan business and massively expand the government's own programs is expected to pass the House today.

Supporters of putting the government in charge of all federal loans say it would save an estimated $87 billion, but not everyone agrees.

Republican critics argue it is wrong to put the government in near-total control of student lending.

The money would boost Pell Grants for needy students and pay for a new college completion fund, community college reforms and more college aid for veterans.

Money also would be spent on things that don't help pay for college, such as construction at K-12 schools and new preschool programs.

The measure would do nothing to curb college costs, which rise much faster than Pell Grants do.

The bill would fulfill a campaign promise by President Barack Obama.

Razorsharp, well spoken and I am impressed by the fact that you mention fiat monetary system. TRhis time two years sgo everyone would have went HUH? What are you talking about, then upon giving an explaination you’d have been called a conspiracy theorist at best and a traitor at worst. I take comfort in the knowledge that I am not alone in my information gathering and knowing that there are others like me who are awake and preparing to take action, or at the very least are aware that huge changes are coming. If you want to network with some other real patriots who are active and doing what is needed to educate those willing to learn check out http://www.restoretherepublic.net, and if you haven;t seen the film by two time academy award winning director Aaron Russo’s ” America Freedom to Fascism” please take the time to see this amazing film. Here is the link to google it.
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1656880303867390173#  if this doen’t load just google search the title and look for the director’s authorized version. I have been at this for 20 years, connecting the dots to this ultimate goal of world domination and world police,world government,new world order ect…The next big attack is to be the swine flu vaccines. It is to be delivered in a series of three. ! shuts off immune system 2 innoculates with active flu, you won’t feel sick cuz immune is off #3 turns on immune and body kills self w/ over reaction of whitecells and anitbodies. Then they will say pandemic!

You are exactly right, 
freedomtofascismcom, and I am in total agreement. The problem is that society has become lazy…complacent. They in fact “can’t” turn off the T.V. They refuse to…it’s always tomorrow…tomorrow…tomorrow I will do that…tomorrow I will look into that…tomorrow I will research that…but right now, Nascar is on…football is on…Desperate Housewives is on and they certainly won’t miss an episode of that. In the meantime, the wool is being stretched tighter over their eyes, the rug is set to be snatched out from underneath their feet…and tomorrow may not be “tomorrow”... Some people are happy living in bliss…the head in the sand theory. Sadly, they make up an enormous part of our population. Most people have the B.I.C. attitude. You ask them “why?” and their reply: Because I Can. Our society is cyclical. What we are seeing now is the “downward” part of the cycle…a regression if you will. There won’t be a bottom, just a neverending, yet slow, downward cycle. Even the very monetary system that we place so much faith and value in, is a fraud. Fiat paper worth no more than the pulp it is grown from. We are small potatoes however, compared to what is really happening globally…the pieces are already set into motion, and it will happen, because we are the key.

I agree we sholud be paying very close attention to what they are doing, and with the amount of people that are unemployed there should be a watchdog at every turn.

So now the government will be a bigger determining factor on who goes to school and who doesn’t.

I figured more bills like this would be secretly passed while everyones attention is directed toward the Health Care bill.
AMERICA look out for whats being passed behind our backs while we are focused on Health Care reform.

Make no mistake about it , if the govt. wants your kid to be an ignorant automaton, nursing at the teat of the federal govt. it will get exactly what it pays for. The idea has been for a longtime to reduce funding,dumbdown the population, send jobs abroad, don’t allow new skill sets to be learned and dissolve the middle class. Its about the redistribution of wealth and the control of society, period! Its called the PROBLEM,REACTION,SOLUTION EQUATION.Works like this: The controlling elite create a problem, then wait for the anticipated reaction of the populace, then offer a solution to the problem they created, which make s them look amazing and intelligent. It allows for you to give up self control and place responsibility in the hands of someone else. I am not beating up people for the sake of doing it, I know its not your fault, this is intended, it is by design that you do not participate in govt. and concentrate on dancing with the stars, or football, or whatever. Try turning off the TV for one week and investigate one thing THE SOVEREIGN CITIZEN. This is my challenge to all of you. I turned off tv six months ago and have read over 25 books dealing with how our system (REALLY) works. I learned to use the law library as well. So become free thinkers please? Cheers!
