I can't believe that's a thing. Some people have a lot more free time than me.

“We looked up how much each of their parents houses were worth. Some of them are expensive. That means they’re rapists.”

We want to control the volume, so that EVERYONE has a chance.

Since when is that a right? Everyone has the right to free speech, not the right to be heard. I might have more insightful things to say than Matt Damon but his views get televised and listened to by millions of people via ten minutes on Letterman. Can I demand a guest spot next week?

I'll step in. Put politics aside for a second and assume that Paul Ryan is absolutely the most qualified and best guy to represent WI district 1. Now suppose he had to take his name off that ballot to be a VP candidate, and then Romney went on to lose the election. It would be unfair to the constituents of WI for the guy best qualifed to now be unemployed and not working for them instead. If they're so worried about their Rep not taking the job and being replaced by Joe Schmo, then they certainly have the option to vote against him and make it a moot point.

I'm currently in student loan debt that is so high that it's more than 10x what I make yearly

Mind if I ask what you studied and what you're currently doing? 10x your income means you have an absurd amount of debt and/or make almost nothing now.

Or should I just stop paying all together and telll them to go fuck themselves?

Please don't do this, you'll do unbelievable damage to your credit and ruin your chances of ever getting a car or buying a house. Talk actively to them about refinancing, if nothing else just pay what little you can afford. There can be a massive difference between being in current repayment status (albeit with some owed) and in outright default.
