Forgiving Student Debt Isn’t the Solution to Anything

But it sure buys votes.

I’d never hire anyone who had their loan forgiven.

Failure to live up to one’s commitments doesn’t look good on a resume.

You don’t even have to do it. You only have to say you’ll do it.

It’s the equivalent of getting what you want by saying, “I’ll pull out.”

There is an important aspect of this movement that is not being acknowledged....

If we forgive the debt for student loans it will be much easier to “forgive” the debt for the next biggest debtors - the democrat strongholds of cities and states that have spent themselves into oblivion. They have to start the idea somewhere and they seem to have chosen a constituency they find sympathetic - students.

Make no mistake. In the next democrat administration/congress there will be a bill to bail out a city like Chicago. I guarantee it because we have a bunch of democrat controlled cities and states in serious economic trouble due to democrat policies. If they can forgive a huge debt nationwide it will be an easier idea to peddle no matter how angry it makes states and cities who followed the rules. After all, they will be bailing out their power base and those of us in flyover country who followed the rules don’t vote for them anyway. This is naked politics at its worst - constitution be damned.

It was Biden who excluded student loan debt from bankruptcy laws . You agree with Uncle Joe?
