“This brings the total debt cancellation my administration has approved to $132 billion for over 3.6 million Americans through various actions,” Biden said in a statement.
Stop complaining about how old he is and look at his actions.
Or maybe vote for Trump so we can have Walmart Hitler. SMH.
I’m still gonna complain about how old he is. But I’m also not voting for Trump
If you want trump to lose, just keep your mouth shut, or better yet get in the bandwagon and be excited about Biden. It doesn’t have to be real. You can fake it.
Holding your nose while you vote is a recipe for a trump win though.
be excited about Biden
A college educated person can earn more than a million dollars more over their career than a high school educated person. Biden is bailing out the rich and the Dems love it.
You have the time to discuss news online at ~7:30am Eastern and the necessary computing tech (phone, laptop) to do so. It certainly sounds like you’re better off than a lot of people – are you also part of the rich? After all, you aren’t doing manual labor nonstop from early in the morning for minimum wage.
I sure have. Started working 16 hours days in the summer months on the local farms custom baling hay and straw when I was 13. I have had many jobs since then, always bettering myself. I’m not rich, but I’m doing ok. I pay my taxes. I’m the callused hands of the working class that actually pays their bills and lives within their means. You?
Rich is an interesting way to put it. Bailing out the rich are tax cuts aimed overwhelmingly at the rich, not taxing capital gains and other ways the rich try to hide their true income and not auditing the rich because it is too much effort.
…and should also include forgiving debt of those that have potential to be higher earners. Student loans were readily accepted and it was fully understood that you would have to pay the money back. Just do that.
I don’t like engaging in negativity on lemmy, but you’re an idiot. People with student loan debt aren’t rich.
Statistics tell a different story. You refuse math, and think I’m an idiot. Enjoy your bullshit degree.
You don’t seem to be aware of what ‘statistics’ are as you unsurprisingly haven’t provided any in traditional ignorant-loudmouth fashion.
As if I need to. You are clearly a fucking idiot likely in debt over their head because you lack any common sense or self control. Enjoy your miserable existence.
"The cancellations have come through existing federal student loan forgiveness programs, which are limited to specific categories of borrowers, such as public-sector workers, people defrauded by for-profit colleges and borrowers who have paid for at least 20 years. " -CNN
These are not rich people.
These forgiveness programs weren’t even created by Biden.
You’re intentionally spreading false information.
I am not spreading false information, you just don’t like the truth. These people are the next burden on the working class that actually pay their bills. Pathetic.
So you think people who were defrauded or are working public service jobs like teachers are rich people and not working class?
Also, who exactly was defrauded?
I think they make enough to pay their bills, sure. Teachers even have the summers off for side work. And to be honest, if they don’t understand how loans work should they be teaching our kids?
Are you saying that because a person could earn more than a million dollars more over their career than a high school educated person that they’re rich? Or are you saying that a person who is college educated is already rich to start with?
Either way is confusing, so I’m hoping you’ll clarify. Seems a lot like you’re implying that a possibility is the same as having a million dollars in your bank account? Like just because I have lotto ticket I’m a millionaire even though the numbers haven’t been drawn yet.
I’m saying it’s statistically proven that a college educated person has a much higher earning potential than a person without higher education.
I’m not implying wealth before college at all. Therefore, if you support a government bail out of those people, you support the government bailing out the wealthy.
I’m trying to understand what you’re saying. Are you arguing equality vs equity? For example that any handouts or bailouts regardless of economic situations or conditions is the same?
How are you defining wealthy/rich vs poor? Would it be fair to say that that at a certain point an item costing $5 is more affordable for someone who makes 100k vs 30k? Generally / statistically speaking.
That would be a fair statement, and also makes a perfect example of why a college educated person, that makes more than a high school educated person, should be able to pay the money they owe.
Fucker has 10 billion dollars for Israel but no dollars (not his plan that cancelled the debt) for Americans.
Typical.
Vote for Trump and see how many dollars you’ll get…
I’d expect that from a republican. That’s why I don’t vote for them.
On lemmy, it’s either you suck the dick they tell you to suck, or you’re “for the other guy”…whatever current evil they choose today happens to be. They don’t like factual even-handed takes on anything.
Thank you SO much for corroborating it.
It’s not just the federverse tho.
It’s the fascist brainwashed Republicans vs the fascist brainwashed Democrats in general.
Oh your “they are the same shit” is so annoying. You both come off as imbeciles. whatever, the options are not great, but come on you got an elderly lukewarm President or an elderly moron president.
One of which actively tried to dismantle our democracy, and their party has blocked almost every initiative they could that help the American people.
Billionaires are eating our world alive and climate change is going to cause mass migration.
You have no sense of civic duty, if we don’t help our neighbors then how the hell are we united as country?
“When your options are genocide far away or genocide here, you choose genocide far away.”
You pathetic sniveling coward.
You don’t support genocide. That’s what you do. Period.
Fuck off.
It’s closer to “when your options are the genocide far away and a genocide here, or a genocide far away”
Not voting doesn’t change a thing. The genocide far away will happen no matter what so the moral thing to do is to vote for the option that will minimize the amount of genocide being done. In the meantime the only thing you can do about the genocide far away is to call your congress and write to your local representative. It feels like almost nothing, but frankly there is almost nothing we can do. We can only minimize the total harm done by voting for Democrats instead of just letting Republicans run wild both domestically and abroad.
Are you familiar with two wrongs don’t make a right?
Or how about the lesser of two evils? Do you think the republicans would have handled this better somehow?
You are delusional if you believe that
Like I said you’re clearly a reactionary moron. Good luck with that, I’m sure you’re a big brave person fighting the good fight.
Biden administration spends 4.8 billion buying votes.
