Biden to cancel 330 billion of student debt by executive order.

Damn, they're on a roll



GOP hypocrites

oh

[Dirks_Finale]

As opposed to 2k to 3k which is what normally inflation rate is. Also, those 100k will buy you a whole lot more stuff if you happen to live outside of the US.

Yes 2 to 3 times what it normally is.

If your job gives you a decent raise of 5-6% you will still take a paycut under Biden.

[ElNono]

I actually wouldn't have had that big of a problem with his handout if he had means capped it at 70k because that means people who actually need the relief, get it.

Also, keep in mind that "free" college has always been available in this country. Just be a little patriotic, salute the flag( instead of disrespecting it) and serve your country.

And I have always cared about the debt and deficits. I was extremely critical of Bush (maybe the worst POTUS on record) I was also on record in this forum as saying that Trump's corporate tax rate was too low.

lmao @ calling that 'free'. Objectively, joining the military is a terrible career choice. Plus, this isn't making college free, it's simply giving some debt relief to a segment of the population that has struggled with it.

Just like businesses struggled during COVID, and nobody complained then.

If the argument is that this does nothing to fix the underlying problem, then I agree, but this handout doesn't really move the needle either way.

1. Sue and find out

2. Business = citizens, per Citizen's United. Citizen's United bad now.

3. Taking a PPP loan was a choice.

4. This handout expressly specifies it's being used to cancel student debt.

Nobody is saying inflation isn't bad, just pointing out that the actual difference is in the 3k-4k range per 100k.

[ElNono]

Also, if you're a Republican and care about deficits, then you gotta wait for your next handout... we're helping Ukraine beat commies right now, tbh...

[daboom1]

If you had 100k in the bank in 2021 it lost about 7k in value in just one year (2022).

Hard to take any of this whining seriously when there was no peep from the righties about the PPP loans being forgiven

[Leetonidas]

Great points.

You're welcome

Exactly, no echo chambers on ST. For instance, Trump is Officially doing awesome is a famous well known thread where Republicans have nuanced debate about the pros and cons Donald Trump. One of many non-echo chambers Conservatives like yourselves discuss items in an even-handed manner guided by Tucker Carlson clips and MAGApersistor12321 tweets

Makes echo chamber comment, gets echo chamber likes instantly

Faux socialist democrats here are cool with government shutting down private businesses but will call you a capitalist hypocrite if you accept compensation for it. They obviously don't understand how capitalism works.

$500 Billion for a College Bailout
$65 Billion for Ukraine
$87 Billion to the Taliban

All Trump wanted was $15 Billion for a Wall.

If he couldn't get it what good was he?

No, the hypocrisy is when faux capitalists gladly take the government handout given to them then turn around about other citizens getting a handout.

Not really complicated at all.

Always a loser

He got stonewalled.
