Canceling $10k of student loan debt is stupid.

Would folks have an issue with loan repayment for police academy? Do they have an issue with US military receiving tuition benefits? It shouldn't be an issue to extend that concept to service professions such as nursing, teachers, etc.

Wouldn't it make more sense to let the free market do its thing, and allow pay rates to rise for those professions if there are not enough people with the needed qualifications to do the work?

Totally agree for services that aren't essential, but for essential services, the lapse in waiting for that to happen comes at the expense of the American people. I didn't agree with loan forgiveness for all, but I could absolutely support improved loan forgiveness for certain professions.

This is ridiculous logic. If it was essential and in short supply, it would be well paying.

Daycare teachers?

Nursing assistants?
Teachers?

Elder care?
Also, while customer service jobs don’t require higher ed, many management positions in the service economy do, and people don’t get rich that way. Restaurant managers, hotel managers, grocery store managers— these people are essential.

Water is essential. Water is cheap.

Yea, we thought sanity would prevail. Sadly, we were mistaken. Biden is moving ahead with something even his own party acknowledges is illegal. Just like using CDC to stop evictions. So much for the rule of law.

Long live the king!

The UMC are the only fiscally conservative demographic left in the US and it's going to be interesting watching them be taxed but excluded from benefits flowing to the poor, MC, and rich.

That's why the only option for Dems is to demonize the opponent the more the better, so that those fiscally responsible/ independent folks don't cross-over and start voting GOP as a group.

The road Biden chose is not going to be pretty.

Governors pen letter to Biden asking he withdraw the loan forgiveness. https://www.npr.org/2022/09/13/1122613813/student-loan-forgiveness-biden-states

I borrowed $24k for school. I had Pell Grants. I could have had $20k forgiven. I still owe $3k. I’m not mad. And I don’t think this is going to hurt anyone except the Federal Loan Services who have made a ridiculous amount of interest from these debts.

I made consistent payments over a decade. The Pell Grant went away. But my Federal Loans stayed at the same balance for ten years? My husband and I could not make sense of that. We paid off three cars by making regular payments. We saw our mortgage go down. I never could get that student loan to go down until I started making large payments to the principal. I finally got it down to $3k. After 22 years, I say it’s time to forgive. They wouldn’t even count my federal service before 2007? Or my consistent payments until after I was enrolled in REPYE. It’s rigged.

It's quite a shame no Dem Governors signed such a letter.

The lack of self-awareness here is stunning.

Ok don’t cancel it

These are the things I want GOP to pay back taxpayers from their own monies

$4 million that Trump administration stole from 9/11 first responders.

And Election lies have cost taxpayers now over $600 million

Given those two anyone concerned about student loan repayment which is way less than that shut up
