Why forgive "student loans" and not all other loans? Why is Biden (democrats) so adamant about it?

[Couchpotato]

They also shouldn't be sponsoring a predatory lending program.

Ok.

 

[dblack]

Ok.

Is it? How do they justify covering all this debt? The presumption seems to be that these people are victims - that they were hoodwinked into crippling debt. I agree. But shouldn't we fix the problem as well? Shouldn't we ensure more kids aren't coaxed into debt they'll never be able to repay?

Cool we are in agreement. The government shouldn’t be forgiving debts.

Or plain old giving money away.

Not you

It's the very definition of a free market. Look at your Keynesian history

Wrong. Keynes was not an economist. He was a communist.

I’m happy for the government to get out of the student loan business

You tell me. You'll never get a bill nor will it raise your taxes

Nobody, just like before. It's why we are $31 + trillion in debt.

Pointing out the government doing some shit they shouldn’t have done isn’t justification for them doing more shit they shouldn’t be doing.

I never argued it was. I'm wondering why there was no outrage before?

I'm betting there won't be in the future either.

It always comes down to who benefits.

Republicans don’t actually have a problem with debt or spending.

We get the bill every April 15.

The fact there wasnt.

We all pay for it numb nuts. At some point the bill comes due. You not wanting to believe that doesn’t change that fact.
