Hey I just a had a thought. We should have a vote on student loan debt. If you vote against a blanket clearing of the debt you automatically go on a list of people who can’t declare bankruptcy due to medical debt.
why is this advice only heeded when people are asked to bail out non-billionaires? Feels like we stopped doing that shit over 80 years ago. This cosplay free market shit is so delusional.
We’re constantly bailing out and subsidizing megacorps, but when asked to invest even the tiniest fraction of that spending into education people all pretend that’s not how our economy works. Poor economic decisions that lose trillions of dollars are made all the time but people act like college students are the only ones that should pay for them.
When some idiot buys a government subsidized 80k SUV and cries about gas prices being too high we bail out that dumbass constantly, even buy him a stupid road to drive it on. But college students, well we cant subsidize their luxurious bullshit because jeff bezos’ profit margin won’t go up right away.
Well, what about ya? How about you look at the whole system and learn how unsustainable it is? How about you understand that those just finishing the process are in a much worse position than most of those that just finished paying their loans were when they first graduated (and it wasn’t great when you first graduated either).
Well, what about you?
Note: I just finished paying off my student debt in Oct.

Sorry, but taxpayers shouldn’t be bailing out your poor financial decisions. You took out the loans, you can pay them back.
Taxpayers bail out poor financial decisions all the time, I see no reason to stop right before one that would actually help people.

What about us who worked hard AF to pay off their off student loans early?
This was 5 years ago, not 15 or 20. I’m not being petulant or a child
“I had it terrible, so everyone should have it terrible!”
What about those of us that had to starve? You should starve, too!
Obviously we should have been smarter and just committed ppp fraud like the others!
Well that’s different. That one is OK to forgive because…

“Wah, I didn’t get the thing so that means nobody can get the thing!”
You sound like a petulant child. Be happy that millions of young people would have been lifted out of debt.
