  11. Shocking! Annie Nova reports student loan borrowers are suing the Trump administration over forgiven debts still haunting their credit reports. Even after federal loans were canceled for fraudulent colleges, the Education Department continues reporting these debts as active to credit bureaus, damaging over 300,000 individuals' ability to secure housing, loans, and jobs. This reveals a critical need for accurate government follow-through on debt relief promises. Read the full story to learn more. Annie Nova deserves praise for this important reporting.

    « Quand on passe des décennies à opérer dans un quasi-monopole protégé, il ne faut pas pleurer quand le consommateur fait ses calculs. Ce n’est pas une crise surprise : c’est l'addition d'années de surfacturation et de mépris. Les géants récoltent ce qu'ils ont semé.

    When you spend decades operating inside a protected oligopoly, don't cry when people finally do the math. This isn't a sudden market crisis—it’s the bill for years of overcharging. Telecom giants are harvesting what they planted. »
