    No. That’s mighty presumptive of you. Play the game as the rules are. I’m suggesting loan forgiveness is a half-measure and it never should have been offered by politicians without solving the problem of unaffordable education. Otherwise, this isn’t a solution, it’s just a band-aid on a gaping still-bleeding wound that needs stitches. It doesn’t solve the problem, but it does create inequity.

      Cute analogy but here’s one for you. It’s not a bandaid it’s a tourniquet for a massive wound prior to needing full amputation.

      Politics isn’t a zero sum game. You need to cash in on the political goodwill before it evaporates.

      The relief isn’t being offered on the other side. The same side giving relief wants to legislate. Both actions are working towards a common goal.

      How is this down voted. You’re speaking facts lol. It’s a shitty bandaid solution

        Because it completely ignores the fact that it does solve the problem for a lot of people, and they don’t want to do it because it doesn’t help everyone.

            We could do both, but you asked why it was being down voted. The down voted text says that politicians never should have offered loan forgiveness. They explicitly said we shouldn’t do both.

              I mean, i still agree. I rather have them put the same energy first in fixing the actual problem. And then the bandaid solution

      But if the rules of the game suck, perhaps the rules need to be changed, no?

      Lol you really couldn’t help yourself. Just one reply and you reveal that you’re actually just a selfish piece of shit. Maybe just shut up while you’re ahead next time. You’re a garbage person but people don’t have to know on the Internet if you don’t make it so abundantly clear.

        No YOU are the piece of shit. Why can’t we debate without unwarranted ad hominems any more? This place is supposed to be better than reddit, but that asks that its users be better. Your post is an indictment - take a look in the mirror before being so vile on the fediverse.

        You know adults can usually communicate their point without resorting to insulting those who have different opinions. You don’t seem to have a point, just insults.
