mechanics, plumbers, active military and other hard workers pay off college loans for college grad welchers.
Not news.
America Last.
Of course it is.
When will be rid of resident Huggies?
Anyone who has worked without a college education should not have to pay for others to relieve them of their decision to take on college debt - never!
Everything the Uniparty pushes is a disaster for taxpaying citizens.
How much are illegal aliens costing us (besides the loss of our country)?
“We Democrats have a lab — two labs actually, secret labs — one in Berkeley and one in Brooklyn, where we come up with ideas to completely piss off the working class, and it’s working wonderfully.”
They're the ones who've defrauded the students!
Nothing is free, it all gets paid for.
You’re asking people who didn’t go to college to pay for your college.
You’re asking people who went to much more affordable community college and trade schools to pay for your college.
You’re asking people who paid off their loans to pay for yours too.
There’s nothing fair about this.
Just like everything else he’s done.
Buying votes with OPM.
Cause we’re a democracy.
My mortgage self identifies as a student loan...
Not me. But my lack of getting a higher paying job is because none of the credits I earned at a local community college would not transfer to bigger colleges, say, Purdue University, Indiana University, etc. Ivy Tech lied to me and 6 years worth of college went down the drain.
Well, it’s not Biden’s money, and it’s not the money of the democrats advocating for it, and it’s not the students’ money, so, why not get those student loans paid off?
It’s very easy spending OTM (other people’s money).
All of that will backfire on the students, when they find out that getting the country into deeper debt means that, they’ll be either taxed at higher rates when they start working, or will have a very hard time finding jobs because companies will have to go out of business because they have to pay higher taxes because of those student loans adding to the debt.
Everything I have heard is that the loans DO continue to accrue interest.
"First, it’s incredibly regressive. The Urban Institute found that "most outstanding student loan debt is held by people with relatively high incomes. … [It] is disproportionately concentrated among the well off." While lower-income households make a up a larger share of borrowers, upper-income households make up a larger share of outstanding student loan debt. That’s because nearly half (48 percent) of student loan debt is held by households whose borrowers earned graduate degrees. Professional degree holders (doctors and lawyers, for example) earn a median annual salary of $96,772, far more than those who did not attend or graduate college.The more generous student loan forgiveness becomes, the more it benefits upper income earners. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York recently estimated that 30 percent of loan forgiveness would go to borrowers from high-income neighborhoods."
That's the killer, but it would take a well-publicized Blue Dog using that moral argument to eviscerate a Marxist free shit progressive candidate in a very-visible primary, before the Democrats will abandon it.
The Democrats would actually be wise to do so and sacrifice a progressive in this manner because they could stake out a 'middle ground' on repayment and handicap the GOP on this in the general.
Instead, Herschel Walker, Brnovich, even Oz better go hard against this free money bullshit in November.
The students have been had. How do you get billions of dollars to progressive higher education centers that will actually teach your idealism? You trick gullible students into believing the government was helping them get an education. But alas, the students were only being used as mules for government money being transported to liberal colleges in the disguise of tuitions. And now who pays? The duped students. But to be warm and fuzzy, democrats offer to save the children from the terrible debt forced upon them. Besides, the good old American taxpayers will pay the debt because they have no choice. Same democrat play I’ve watched for years. Stupid gullible students who should pay for their obligation and the same dumbed down democrats that have no sense of frugality, budget and self-discipline that continue to vote for their favorite team rather than sanity.
It's not just about buying votes from deadbeats. The money goes to the banks who made the loans.
Will Joe pay back my student loan circa 1984? I paid it in full and early. The reason I paid it in full is it was for a degree in pharmacy and not those crap degrees in liberal arts that have little worth financially.
I had a good job awaiting when I graduated. Many potential employers lined up to hire me as they valued my skills.
Funny story. A chain pharmacy would come to our school and entice students one year from graduation with money. Most of us were broke by the last year of pharmacy school. Take the money and commit to work two years and the loan was forgiven. I declined as I wanted to work in Texas and this chain was only in Louisiana. If I wanted to stay and work in Louisiana I would have taken the money.
I worked since I was 16 years old to accrue my college money, and worked as a work study student while attending my undergrad alma mater. What’s so special about these latter day louts that I have to pay for their college, too? NOTHING. Pay for your own Womens Studies, Black Studies, Woke Studies, etc. You have no right to ask ME, a taxpayer, to pay for your college.
