Holy crap. How can you not like this guy. How can you not respect this guy. Again, holy crap.

The dems always bring up possible student forgiveness months before elections. Reparations and pension fund bailouts will be mentioned soon.

Student loan forgiveness would cost the government $1.4 trillion, plus the loss of interest on the loans. More inflation and government debt.

Reparations about $12 trillion.

Such BS
Reparations are never ever happening
Republicans bring up more then Dems
Just look at this board
Nobody on the left here supports Reparations
Telling
Only Trumpers bring it up on this board
It's the boogeyman to Republicans and they run on it trying to get votes.
Newsflash
Reparations will never happen
But
Republicans will always bring it up to get votes
I am against reparations
It's just common sense

"I’m going to eliminate your student debt if you come from a family making less than $125,000 and went to a public university.”

“I’m going to make sure everyone gets $10,000 knocked off of their student debt."

Those are the only campaign promises he hasn't kept. Probably decided hold that carrot until the next election.

He failed to raise corprotate taxes by 33% as promised, but the Republicans thwarted his amazing plan. At least he tried.

In other words, he’s done a remarkably good job of following through on the promises that got him elected?

The horror!

Meanwhile, righties still waiting for Mexico to cut that check for the wall that never got built.

Great politics for Biden to cancel some student debt just before the midterms: a very popular act that will have the righties screaming their heads off and making fools of themselves.

I have a bunch of rabid anti Trump friends. And relatives. Not a one doesn’t think the concept of canceling student loan debt isn’t just a plain stupid idea. I think there are enough hard working Americans, Democrat, Republican and Independent, that will vote Republican to block the imbecilic idea of just magically eliminating your responsibilities. Perhaps the stupidest idea amongst the myriad of stupid ideas that is the Democrat party.

It will already have happened by the time anyone votes. 🤷‍♂️

I think cancelling student loans is the responsible thing to do. But, to make it last college would also have to be made free. And, I am not talking expensive private schools, but community college and public universities.

Student loans (and government grants) are what made college so pricey in the first place. Which creates a dark spiral, because the more money that will be lent/given with government guarantees, the more money people will take. If college is made free, such a market would not exist. Much of Europe does this very thing.

The clear majority of Americans supports some type of student loan relief
How are you gonna block it.
I truly doubt this is a key issue for the American people in determining who they will vote for
