US Marshals Arresting People For Not Paying Their Federal Student Loans

HOUSTON (FOX 26) - Believe it or not, the US Marshals Service in Houston is arresting people for not paying their outstanding federal student loans.

Paul Aker says he was arrested at his home last week for a $1500 federal student loan he received in 1987.

He says seven deputy US Marshals showed up at his home with guns and took him to federal court where he had to sign a payment plan for the 29-year-old school loan.

This can't be true. Obama said college would be almost free? Noway our president would never allow it.

Good, he has had 30 years to pay it back to the taxpayers and hasn't done it, but it would have been easier to have attached his wages.

The enforcement cost more than the debt.

Free college will have to pay for those who have already graduated as well.Imagine 30 year olds and up filing for reimbursement for loans they incurred and payed off many years prior.Saying that would be catastrophic to our economy would be an understatement.

Nothing is free in America , except:
1. Obama phones
2. welfare checks
3. housing in the hood
4. medical service
5. food stamps or food
6. "education for minorities "
7. free housing in the section 8 suburbs
8. free electric
9. free gas
10. free transportation
11. free lawyers
12. free cash to criminals in D.C. so they won't break the law.

Oh well , should have paid your bill , that debt was Bushes fault.

Good. It's about time they went after people who don't repay their student loans. They just think ok, I'm finished with school now, I'll get on with life and never repay. That's not how it works so no need to act like you didn't do anything wrong - you did. When you receive a loan, you pay it back, period.

But countless tax sucking illegals steal from us daily.

Seems Obama and his justice department only enforce laws against citizens and let illegal immigrants get away with murder. Now they want to put the lorretta lynch on the supreme Court.

Debt prisons are back... Just like in the 1700's when they would toss you in jail for not paying debt, which is funny because how will you pay the debt in jail? out side of time???

Somehow they need to be forced to pay. If this is the only way then so be it.
