I worked two, sometimes three jobs to pay for college. I never took out a loan. Can I get my money back?

I basically saved all the money myself to put four kids through college. Can I get my money back?

Biden says “I will forgive student debts.”

Supreme Court says “You can’t.”

Biden says “I will forgive student debts anyway.”

“Student loan forgiveness” is how the sorriest bass turd on this planet got himself elected to the Presidency of the United States. This country has gone to hell.

Biden set a precedent that there is no contract law

A lot of you are looking at these “loans” like what you do to buy a car, or get a mortgage (or even apply for a credit card). Nothing could be further from the truth.

I have seven kids. Four bachelor’s degrees, 1 junior (Zoology), 1 sophomore (engineering), and one in high school.

No loans - ever.

But I have been through in-processing six times, and I can tell you that these “loans” appear out of nowhere, don’t seem to require much if anything in the way of consent (”everybody does it, check the box, what’s wrong with you”), and if I were a cynic (tee-hee) I would say it’s a covert way for Congress and the Executive Branch to shovel money directly to colleges and universities, hoping to tag some 18 year olds along the way who can become Special Taxpayers with lifetime responsibility for Federal spending on leftist propaganda.

And, yes, I worked during college and the first two years of medical school on a factory floor and as a letter carrier, and I paid my bills. But medical school was $1600, and NY State paid half. Medical school is now $90,000/year. That’s a lot of mail through the slot.

It’s not lazy students majoring in Trans studies, it’s a gigantic scam, run by the government for the sake of their allies in the universities, with students holding the bag.

Biden is an arse and always be an arse.

The issue should be that the students are granted “forgiveness” it should be that they have the opportunity to go through Bankruptcy like any other massive debt.

Millionaires and Billionaires like Trump are able to wipe away millions of debt through Bankruptcy.

Why in the hell can’t those who are struggling with let’s say 40,000 of student debt be able to wipe away this away like fools who rack up credit card debt, car debt or other debt?

TOTAL SCAM by the powers that be.

If there is to be any repayment of college loans, it should be accomplished by the colleges themselves. If there is any overcharge for tuitions, aren’t they the ones responsible? The general public, particularly the ones who never went to college, certainly have no responsibility. I’m older than Biden & totally understand this, so why can’t he? Of course, I’m not fishing for votes to get reelected.

Thank you for referencing that article MtnClimber.

"Thus decrees Biden [??? emphasis added]: You shall pay others' student debts"


FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument

Again, just like 2nd term Obama, Biden is now corrupt Congress's scapegoat, Congress first letting Obama, and now Biden, front-end Congress's unconstitutional mischief, particularly where the vote-winning, but unconstitutional spending of our unconstitutional federal taxes are concerned.

Speaking of RINOs not impeaching Biden, it's entirely up to Democratic and Republican patriots to start Trump's 2024 election campaign by effectively “impeaching and removing” ALL incumbent state and federal lawmakers, except for MTG for sure, maybe also keep Gaetz, Jordan, Grassley, others?, who are up for reelection in Congress by primarying them in 2024.

After all, they have once again shown that that do not have the patriotism and leadership skills necessary to find legislative support for effective remedies for unconstitutional government policies.

Trump can endorse candidates that Constitution-savvy partiots recommend as long as candidates are not incumbents, candidates also promising to not only repeal the 16th (direct taxes) and 17th (popular voting for federal senators) Amendments after they win office.

The definition of insanity is reelecting your beloved career state and federal lawmakers and executives over and over again, expecting those same lawmakers to find remedies for unconstitutional government policies every time.

Let's not get fooled a third time in 2024.

The Universities should be the ones to pay for any student loan forgiveness.

I like the idea of gutting ten centuries of English contract law by saying that a contract does not mean what it says.

And why not?

Does anyone here actually believe that anything will be done to stop this new tyrannical imposition on the serf's few remaining freedoms?

Dear leader realizes that, since the former Constitution has been totally shredded and relegated to history, he has no reason to recognize a SCOTUS decision based of that discredited document...

The only freedom remaining is to:
Bow down... Obey... Snitch...

These are people who were enrolled in IDRs (income driven repayment) and who have accumulated the equivalent of either 20 or 25 years of qualifying monthly payments, the administration said. ...

The devil is always in the details. “Qualifying monthly payments”. What exactly, does that mean? If they missed a payment, are they ineligible? I put nothing past potato head but is this a head fake? Would the details take all the way up to the election to be ironed out? Is this a temper tantrum by the diaper wearing fool that in the end, would amount to nothing more than a broken promise. I'm waiting before my blood pressure goes through the roof.
