Biden is now fully backtracking on any debt forgiveness for the time being, yikes.
Quote:
Speaking to reporters at the daily briefing Wednesday, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Biden planned to hold off on making any decisions on student loan debt executive action until his appointees at the Justice Department have a chance to review the issue. There is no immediate time frame on that legal review process
Quote:
White House officials said Wednesday that Biden’s reference to writing off $10,000 of loan forgiveness was not meant as a descriptor for executive action but to reflect his endorsement of achieving that goal through legislation, which he has not yet proposed.
Well another case of a “poor decision with an equally poor outcome” and topped off with a scope of “it’s not my fault, I’m the real victim.” Yeah, the victim of your own stupidity... Looking for a free hand-out.
And being a “Hispanic female” had nothing to do with being under employed... In today’s global market, who would think that a Liberal Arts degree, if that what she had, would open up the flood gates to a six figure job??
Seriously, you don’t need a college degree to figure out that this was a bad move and on a side-note, liberals are always in full support of the globalization of our economy... Until they see that they screwed themselves... Again.
All in just two paragraphs, it explains how disconnected these Leftists are from their problem and what they think is the cause of their problem.
So she made a a bad personal choice to spend $170K on a worthless degree from a suspect institution and now she blames her failing to get a high paying job because she thinks it’s because she is “Hispanic and a woman.”
Hint: it’s been known for sometime now that there really aren’t that much demand for art /liberal arts degrees from second rate colleges. She was lucky she even made $28,000 last year. It isn’t because you were Hispanic and a woman.
If you had a degree in a field that was in demand, you would have been snatched up quickly by many companies since now many are so hungry for woman and minority applicants.
I'm torn on this. On one hand she made a bad choice. On the other hand she's trying. A good middle ground may be to restore the bankruptcy discharge to those whose loans have been due for seven years or five years. That way someone can't just bankrupt themselves when they graduate and almost by definition have no property or money, but the truly needy can get relief. Someone whose career is up and running won't want to file, trust me on that.
Conservatives believe THEY should pay back their student loans. Only leftists think everyone else should pay for their loans.
Stop spreading fake news. There's no group of people in large numbers that are not paying back their student loans on time. The vast majority are making timely payments.

I suggested a middle ground, two posts above. Why is that ignored? I'll repost it for ease of reference:

False as usual. Even if leftists like you are actually paying back student loans, they would gladly take some government cheese, i.e. a handout from other taxpayers.

That indicates there's no reason whatsoever to forgive $10,000 let alone $50,000 worth of student loan debt. The vast majority are making timely payments.

I could go along with something like that.
I've been fortunate enough to make enough money to pay back (almost) $50K in student loans. I'm on my last $15K, so maybe Dopey Joe will take care of $10K of that.
