Payments on student loan debt have been paused for several months dating back to former President Donald Trump's administration.

“Several months” when Trump started the pause in May 2020 and it’s July 2023, that’s about 38 month ago.

Give me a break! Payments start in Sept/Oct of 2023. And they are whining. Imagine if we had no credit card or other debt interest during that time? How much would it have saved Americans?

More than three years. No payments, no interest. Grifters.

In the case of student loan payments, zero, since the debt is almost exclusively owed by Americans to Americans. At the end of the day, the government has no independent source of wealth, and can only redistribute our wealth. (Do not confuse "money" with wealth. Printing "money" is a form of wealth redistribution.)
