The White House announced Tuesday an additional $3.9 billion in student loan forgiveness, this time for borrowers who attended defunct ITT Technical Institute.

The latest round brings Joe Biden's student loan forgiveness total to $32 billion since taking office – but progressive are still pushing for the president to cancel all existing federal student loans.

Borrowers are also still waiting to hear if federal loan pause will be extended for a fifth time as the latest deadline approaches.

This is only going to drive the cost of education up as the educrats realize they can charge what they want and the taxpayer will pick up the tab.

I have a daughter who is about to start her sophomore year at a Big 10 school. I’ve saved money and broke my butt to pay for her college.

If Biden continues to forgive student loan debt my plan is to take out a parent student loan for her senior year in an equal amount to what biden is forgiving and not pay it back.

Why stop at student debt. Next in line should be the cancellation of all big rig payments for those who earn an honest living by driving a truck, and find these payments to be a burden. Thanks mostly to the price of fuel.

Why don’t these corruptocrats just go all the way and cancel all debts for all registered democrats?

It’s only fiat, Not even real money anymore, and 87,000 new armed IRS agents can shake down every registered Republican for the cash in their pockets, after they take that deposited in banks.

How can a POTUS do this?

Is it in a law somewhere?

Or is it part of the ‘pardon’ clause in the Constitution?.................

Congress recklessly spends to buy votes and increases an unsustainable debt which they expect taxpayers to repay. Students have learned to recklessly borrow to get a degree which will not return sufficient income to repay the debt and expect the taxpayers to pay it off.
