    However, some Republicans have characterized Biden’s effort as a “bailout for the wealthy.”

    I’M SORRY WHAT???

    Do these people think that having an education means you’re wealthy?

      They simultaneously believe that only the wealthy go to colleges, only the poor get loans, and everybody is getting a degree in underwater basket weaving. They don’t want an educated populace… And it’s working.

        Yeah it certainly looks that way… Terrifying stuff to watch from the sidelines. I hope for all our sakes that these people have a moment of realization sooner rather than later.

      No, it’s because their base is generally undereducated and easily triggered. Making conflated bullshit easy to pass off.

      No, they just don’t think that words mean anything, so they’ll use whatever words necessary to convince the gullible sheep to willingly walk into the slaughterhouse.

      Unlimited funds for our most important citizens: corporations. Giving money to those dirty poors is just irresponsible

    Apparently capping interest for people in financial hardship while they’re making regular payments to prevent a loan that spirals out of control from accumulating interest is “a bailout for the wealthy.” According to Republicans.

    Very upsetting because the new SAVE plan is a big improvement over the prior repayment options in a lot of ways. Imagine if due to a court order everyone who just got restarted on student loan repayments suddenly has their payment plan forcibly and suddenly switched back resulting in higher payments and all the confusion and people who would blame Biden and, oh I think I just explained why Republicans are doing this.

    Kansas Republicans and opposing anything that might benefit the working class are like two peas in a pod.
