Lefties gonna come out in droves next year to vote after being in debt hell for an entire year.

I want the government doing as little as possible. Just because I don't want the government being the inefficient middleman for "helping out people" doesn't mean I don't want to help people. However, I want to help people that actually need help. Not enable dumbasses to be irresponsible. Grow the frick up, dumbass.

LOL. Clutch those pearls any tighter and you'll choke yourself. If you borrow money you should pay it back. That's not getting fricked, that's being a responsible person. Grow up already

Are you saying the money paid to the loans does not go back into the economy? Are the loans agencies in a different economy than Foot Locker or something like that?

Republicans don’t give a duck about education and never have, the whole power base in the Southern States depends on keeping people stupid and always have. Half the post on this site prove my point, and my family has been Southern GOP for over 100 years. Initially it was just fear of educating black people but over time we just decided that our best move was that the general population be as stupid and gullible as possible, which has served us well for 50 years or so now.

They worry about gay marriage and drag queens and stupid shite like that, while we pass laws to make sure they stay stupid and poor and line our pockets and our friends pockets with everything we can steal

The loan agency is the US Gov, but you knew that right?

How is that "frick the common man"? The common man isn't a degenerate frick who signs a contract to repay a loan that said company was generous enough to lend out, on the agreement you pay it back as interest, and then turn around and complain you have to pay it back.

The common man repays his debts. Why not forgive car loans for those not in college? Why not forgive home loans? Those that did not attend college have to pay their way to attend their job. Yet they get fricked over because you want the privileged to be even more privileged?

Those student loans are backed by the federal government, IE TAX DOLLARS. Ergo, the taxpayer is on the hook for the college kid not wanting to live up to their obligation. THose people aren't contributing back to the economy by having their loans forgiven. They are given a free ride and learn the fallacy of government dependence. Look how well government dependence worked for the American Indian and black communities.

Taxation is not charity, dipshit. You want the same government that is giving over $40 billion to Ukraine, and that flat out lost $400 billion of the Obama stimulus to act as your intermediary for charity. Guess what, being a liberal doesn't make you charitable. Charity is taking your own money and giving to those in need. There is nothing preventing you, personally, from taking your own income and giving it directly to a college student who has loans.

And why haven't you done that? Because you don't want to really help anyone. You want everyone else to bear that burden.

The common man shouldn't be subsidizing expensive education for idealistic pricks who couldn't be bothered to take a blue collar job.

Yep - all demanding more hand outs for their own foolish mistakes. And politicians will pay lip service to those people, but they won't be able to do anything more than that.

Because they won't be able to forgive student loans or discriminate against people based on race or religion.

Queue the loan payment deferments til into 2024 now

Biden Admin knew this was coming. I’d bet they are announcing some extension this afternoon. If they don’t extend it, the consumer economy will take a hit. But it’s what Fed needs to lower inflation and finally get interest rates under control.

If you, as a Democrat and pro government spending and taxation, care so much about education. Then explain how student test scores have dropped increasingly since the 1970s, yet spending on the department of education has increased 10-fold?

Explain why the private schools outperform public schools in most states?

I can see both sides. Many young adults are forced into significant, long term debt right into early adulthood. Most can’t afford college without getting a loan. They also need a car to get to school/work, and a place to stay with all bills and the responsibilities that go with it. I was not a fan of loan forgiveness, but I thought it would actually benefit the young middle class more than other demographics, which isn’t something that happens often, but should to stimulate the economy.

I think young adulthood is probably the toughest period in most peoples lives, so yea I think it sucks that many people are forced in life changing debt in order to try to be successful and most don’t have the initial income to properly balance it all.

That said I took out student loans. I have a masters degree in a field that no longer work in due to necessary life changes. I never asked my loans to be forgiven, but I wouldn’t have complained if they were.

I do think the system needs changes so that so many don’t have to start in long term debt to try to make it on their own. Let’s be honest, who does the debt system benefit? I don’t have the answers though.

If you dont think the left are going to use this for an entire year of pain farming im afraid I have some bad news hahahaa.

Personally I think capping the amount of money you can take and 0% interest rates would have had a better outcome but I guess we will find out in 17 months
