I've got some return news for you Pedro, if you do not understand that 90% of government in place today is a response to the failures of capitalism, then you aren't paying attention.
$1.6 trillion is $4500 per capita (350 million)... of course there are a lot less tax returns.... 142 million in 2018. So if about 150 millon returns in 2022 it costs $10,500 per return.Someone check my math, but for me this comes out to an average of over 35k per person.
So the write off would theoretically reduce amounts owed by 1/3. But it comes back in 5 years? woof.
Every single place leftoids rage about police brutality and oppression is run by fellow leftoids. They're all literally the racist white supremacists they accuse everyone else of being.I thought the government is systematically racist? But now you want the government to control everything? Are you a white supremacist?
We've got a real life example of the kind of thieving lowlife that is deliberately aiming to default on the loan in @K-town Vol Fan right here in this thread. The comparison is absolutely laughable.That's just stupid
Although I would be more in support of wiping out bills for cancer patients than for those who knowingly took money and don't want to pay
Capitalism isn't a philosophy or something people choose to do, it is the natural state of the economy. It isn't great but it is the DEFAULT. All systems work under it, even the ones with government intervening to be a player. At some point there is value to a good, supply and demand, etc. You are NOT going to escape Capitalism because it is reality.
Please go read Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations before spouting political nonsense. Issue with people today is that they are free to give opinions without reading or understanding the topic they are commenting on.
That's just stupid

The whole issue is that now people that made sacrifices or opted into things like trades are going to be shouldering the burden of a bunch of spoiled brats that are either too inept, too lazy, or too stupid to use the degree they chose to indebt themselves over. There's nothing positive about this at all.I can't help but hate this move. There's way too many people, unfortunately I'm friends with some, that go rack up student debt with dumb decisions and my money should not be their escape route. Perfect example of someone I know:
Goes to a small liberal arts college that's $40k a year, gets an English degree but doesn't want to teach so they are stuck working the front desk at a medical office with a ton of debt. Don't feel bad for them at all and they should burden the consequences.
There's this weird stigma with the majority of kids that going to a free community college for two years is a bad / embarrassing move. Also, we put way too much emphasis on college acting like it's required to make a really good living. It's absolutely needed for a lot of jobs but it's also a complete waste for a lot too.
If you could weed out the dumbasses I wouldn't be so against it.
It absolutely is the point. To avoid having debt he made a sacrifice that anyone else could have made. The people getting this grift now had to do nothing but be total losers and are getting a handout for a debt decision they chose. Is your comprehension busted?That’s not remotely his point, he’s whining because he thought he was getting military special treatment (which he was) and now it’s slightly less special
