[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anything which turns younger people away from the GOP is fine with me. Keep on going Supreme Court and MAGA governors. [/quote]

Sounds like you think freebies are the way to attract young voters? [/quote]

Like the "freebies" given to Republican members of Congress?

"Reps. Vern Buchanan of Florida, Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, Mike Kelly of Pennsylvania, and Markwayne Mullin and Kevin Hern of Oklahoma — who it said had six- and seven-figure PPP loans forgiven as part of a federal program intended to help those harmed by the coronavirus."

Under Biden's student debt plan, borrowers who earn less than $125,000 a year, or $250,000 for couples who file taxes jointly, will be eligible for up to $10,000 in debt cancellation.

I've seen lots of young people who are livid, because they thought that 10k out of their 100k they owe in loans might be forgiven and might help them save enough money to eventually get a house downpayment.

Keep on helping GOP congress critters and forgiving their SIX TO SeVEN FIGURE loans and see how that works out. I mean, there's enough money Mike Kelly (R) had 987k in loans forgiven. That sum could have helped *987* younger Americans who make under 150k a year.

But, no, you just want the money for republicans and for the wealthy. We understand perfectly.

Those PPP loans were designed to be forgiven. Student loans not so much.  [/quote]

So already rich Congress critters (or well off people) get forgiven PPP loans in the seven figures, but we don't have enough money as a country to give struggling newish graduates a break with 10? Ok. [/quote]

I so agree with this. [b]I don't understand where the outrage was as the wealthy got their PPP loans forgiven???[[/b]/quote]

Let me help you out then......

[b]The PPP loans were not for the "wealthy" at all.[/b]  It was for business owners to pay employees because our government FORCED businesses to close during the pandemic and these people had no form of income.  It was to help the workers survive.  I would bet that if you asked the vast majority of these business owners if they would have preferred to take the PPP money or stay open, they would have chosen the latter.

College loans are totally voluntary.  They are not forced on borrowers.

Hmmm, how about Jared Kushner, Tom Brady, Church of Scientology, artist Jeff Koons, Kanye West, tons of politicians, and a whole lot of billionaires? The lists are public so take a look. Private schools in the DVM got millions and they did not open nor did they need the money as staff was already being paid and they did not lose tuition dollars.
