Sorry, the courts say that all children, regardless of status are allowed an education, and hospitals must treat indigents in emergency situations. There's nothing Trump and his administration can do about those two things. |
It was a huge windfall for Millennials and GenZ but apparently that kind of giveaway doesn't translate into votes. |
Why? Do you know how predatory the loans are? And how much corporate gouging goes on with them? And who are you people to judge what is a good enough major or forked for loans? You people make me sick. So bent out of shape over a little check on greed when people are trying to better their situation. But do t blink an eye over corporate welfare, farm subsidies, bankruptcy for everything else allowed except student loans? Gtfoh. |
It’s the schools fault
Cut off loans It will force them to drastically lower prices |

They already have this already. They didn't even have to work the ten years, because COVID postponements counted towards their months of service. |
Contempt One of the main things that I hear from my fellow tradesmen is how the elite and white-collar professional class don't care about or respect the blue collar working class. This disrespect comes out in many ways, big and small. But you can hear it a lot in the political rhetoric coming out of the progressive side these days. It was there in the COVID conversation, how work-from-home white collar folks pushed for endless lockdowns and vaccine mandates, to be imposed on the working class whose labor they relied on to stay home. It's there in the way they talk about a universal basic income instead of high-paying trade jobs, and in the way they push for low-wage green jobs instead of union energy jobs. But you can really see it in how they talk about college. Take the latest issue that progressives are pushing the Biden administration on—student loan cancelation. They want us taxpayers to pay off the student loans of the college educated, who on average make more money than those without a degree, and for whom the economy recovered almost immediately post-COVID. Then they have the audacity to tell us that it will help blue collar workers. They want us to enthusiastically agree to pay off their student loan debt, and then have the nerve to tell us it's in our interest as Americans. That's what I mean about disrespect. And it pervades the entire conversation about college in America today. https://www.newsweek.com/divide-isnt-right-v-left-its-us-blue-collar-workers-fighting-elite-contempt-opinion-1706053 |
Biden made student loans forgiveness a “grievance football” for many non Trump supporters including me and my DH who deferred a good deal of what our friends had do that we could rapidly pay back loans. People who bought houses five years before we did had loans forgiven We are the suckers. |
Hopefully, you will be able to better your situation. Otherwise, you will remain a miserable sod. |
I refused to vote for Harris for this exact reason. I like in PA now. |
This. +1 Stop student loan forgiveness. Focus government resources on making public colleges and universities more affordable. |
The only people who actually received student loan forgiveness were those in PSLF or who had paid for more than 20/25 years. These people were supposed to be forgiven according to the terms of their promissory notes and the bipartisan education law signed by GWB. All other efforts by Biden to forgive students loans were not enacted. You’re a sucker because you didn’t understand the law? No, that just makes you ignorant of your options. That’s like paying extra taxes when a CPA could help you legally minimize your tax burden. |
+10000 except you forgot to add rhe ridiculous masters degrees nobody should be paying anything for. and that we shouldn’t be making loans for overpriced degrees in the first place. |
No, those of us who have been paying for 25 years are still paying. The a$$hat MAGA suckup Missouri AG filed suit in a MAGA court, and now it’s blocked. And now with Drumpf, it will never happen. It seems illegal to continue to make us pay. I have more than paid back the amount of my loan plus tons of interest. |
This is one of the few accurate posts on this train-wreck of a thread. |
