A Elephant and a Mouse are not the same Just because they both eat peanuts .. but thats what you are trying to get people to admit with warren and predatory lending ... using your logic the lunch lady the janitor or any one who has a job at any college or university in the country profited off of students borrowing money. even though they have no control over policy

ummm, i know an elephant and a mouse arentbthe same just because they eat peanuts. you guys are really slow in the uptake.
the mouse and the elephant are different. very different. but if both eat peanuts, neither one has the moral standing to lecture the other about why it’s evil to eat peanuts. do you honestly not agree with that? seriously?

see, once again, you are losing so you move the goalposts. first you said the distinction was between the elephant and the mouse, now you’re saying the distinction is between good and bad peanuts.
was warren only calling out the “predatory” lenders, and encouraging people to use the ethical lenders? that’s not how i recall it. she went after banks for exploiting students and driving up the cost of tuition. you cannot win this, i have all the cards, you have a pair of 4s.
she’s the textbook definition of a shameless hypocrite. and i pray she runs for potus in 2020.

I think you're conflating issues Jim. Warren wants all college loans to be at a low enough interest rate so the lender -- often the US Government directly -- doesn't see a profit. I'm not sure why this would be a bad thing.
The predatory issue she has was with shady colleges working to attract students but failing to deliver an education. Previously the government would forgive these loans if the complaint was qualified...under Trump this has pretty much ceased.
Holding all the cards doesn't mean much if you're at the craps table just FYI
