I have kids in college right now. I’m paying their way with money I’ve set aside since they were born. Am I going to encourage TD hen to go get $10K in loans because it will probably get covered? Hell no.

OUCH! "Mr Earth is Flat"?? Does that fact sting as well?

The petty spitball and rest of your BS doesn't change anything. There are principles and then there's $$. Take it. It's yours anyway.

THAT is on you, my friend.

There are plenty of ways to rationalize this issue. Some sound justifiable.

But like it or not, this issue is a matter of integrity, honesty, and honor.

So if you have a mortgage and the bank called today and forgave it, you would say "no thanks, I insist on continuing to make payments"?

This makes much sense as the Earth being flat.

You can keep deflecting, I'm still going to suit here and laugh at you.

No, I don't think I'll get making sweeping generalizations that I can't possibly defend and not understand when I'm questioned about them.

It's one of the real disappointments with this board over the last few years. It has the same problem Twitter does: Far too many want to manipulate a legitimate question and turn it into a moral issue.

My original question certainly prompts that as part of the answer, but the extrapolation of "Do I take the same thing everyone else is?" to "If you can't pay your own bills you are a dumb low-life" is just frustrating. It pre-supposes things that can't be known from this thread and just puts such a toxic element into the conversation.

Again, like Twitter, too many people come here to claim moral and intellectual high ground instead of just engaging in good faith debate.

Will it be optional? You seriously think they're gonna make people apply for this? That's racist.

"bowtie" isn't one word. Do better if you want to start calling out typos.

The question was put to the OT by a poster who wanted opinions. And now that those opinions include a moral dilemma, sudden the consideration is NOT "in good faith"?

Yeah. Ok.

This is fricking rich coming from the hypocrite that refuses to answer which handouts he takes from his moral high ground.

Actually, Biden has just made it your problem.

Although OP didn’t say they wouldn’t or couldn’t pay without this program.

Joe Biden is a "grown up" too. Is that really the argument you want to go with?
