Opposition to Student Debt Cancellation "Churlish" [semi-satire]
semi-news/semi-satire ^ | September 11, 2022 | John Semmens

Democrat candidate for Georgia governor Stacey Abrams told a group of working-class voters at a campaign stop in Valdosta, Georgia that "those who oppose President Biden's decree cancelling a portion of students' college debt are being churlish." For those not used to hearing the word, "churlish" is defined as "being rude in a mean-spirited and surly way."

"The unity that the Democratic Party is trying to bring to this country requires that each person contribute his or her fair share to the collective welfare," Abrams explained. "Those who don't have what it takes to succeed in college have a duty to support those who do. These students are the intelligentsia of the nation. They are the ones with the brainpower to grasp the fundamentals behind a socially just society. Funding their education is essential."

"To the individual who says 'why should I have to pay for someone else to go to college?' I say 'chill,'" said the self-proclaimed "true winner" of the 2018 Georgia governor's race. "Play the role assigned to you by the wiser heads who run the government. We have the knowledge and vision needed to determine what each person should put into the common pot and the most just way of distributing what comes out of that pot. When I am chosen as the state's next governor you will see me implement this plan for Georgia."

Sadly Biden’s student debt forgiveness program appears to be on the cusp of being accepted. The howls of indignation have quieted. I do not think one lawsuit has been filed.

So she is an admitted collectivist: i.e. a Communist/Fascist. In America individual rights are protected and individual responsibility is assumed...

It sort of dawned on me this weekend...

I don’t know the demographics of who will benefit from the student loan forgiveness boondoggle. My instincts tell me it will be overwhelmingly white and the offspring of the middle/upper classes.

It occurs to me that if this would have been a Republican led issue (ignoring for a moment that this is not something Republicans would be pushing) don’t you think the whole thing would be shouted down as Racist and unfairly helping whites at the expense of blacks and hispanics?

Just another in the nearly infinite ways in which the MSM plays their agenda without batting an eye.

There is no cancellation. Just a transfer of debt from students to taxpayers.

YES
