[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just stop it with student loans. Pay what you owe and agrees to payback like an adult.  Yet again Biden is trying to give free handouts.  And what does it do to solve the actual problem?  Absolutely nothing.  He gives a handout now and what happens 5 years from now when a new crop of students have debt? Yet another free handout will be expected because nothing has been done to address actual costsl.  What a pathetic attempt at trying to buy votes with taxpayer money.  [/quote]

You mean like the PPP loans taken by most of the GOP? Or how about those bailout loans to the banks during the GFC? It's only handouts when it's the poor and middle class. Maybe just give them the option of filing bankruptcy so at least they can discharge these debts rather than be stuck with them for life. And let's be honest, you boomers are the biggest takers with your hands out your whole life. [/quote]

What problem does Biden's loan forgiveness solve?

Pretty much none, because 5 years from now the same problem happens again. The PPP loans prevented the Great Depression 2.0.  The bank bailouts WERE LOANS and actually were paid back with interest.  Taxpayers made profit, lol. [/quote]

The PPP loans were rife with fraud, much of which was perpetuated by the GOP and its backers. What problems did the Trump tax cuts solve? None, except to reward his supporters, and it was paid for by blue cities and states. Cynically, this is no different than those tax cuts so you don't really have a place to criticize. You just don't like the fact that the other party is doing it and it doesn't benefit you. Typical boomer.[/quote]

The PPP occurred during a catalysmic event, dum dum.  Sure, there was fraud, but it also helped many businesses survive and the Great  Depression 2 from happening.  There was no time to make sure everything was perfect during PPP when the country was staring down the barrel of a massive recession that could have caused 40% unemployment.  [/quote]

You didn't answer the second part of the response because you don't have one. You just don't like the fact that it doesn't benefit you.[/quote]
