You wonder why just people with student loans?
Wouldn't it been better to hand out $10K to $20K to people in lower incomes to pay for rent, food, utilities instead?
Why would the Democratic Party use $300 billion to spend it on college graduates who all have pretty much the means to pay off their student loans?

Of course you knew that, but I felt like answering the rhetorical question... haha.

Voter participation (turnout) is directly proportional to income. In other words, poor people don't vote. This is seldom discussed, but is important to understand.

College kids don't have jobs so they have all the free time to go vote.

The Biden student loans forgiveness plan... some good, some bad. Many say there's more bad than good. But as with so many other government plans, policies and programs backed by one or both of the two major political parties or their leaders, some of the arguments being advanced against this Biden plan on student loans are risible (and that's not good.)
"The arguments against Biden’s loan forgiveness plan are terrible" (I would preface this with "Some of the arguments...")

The question is how much good the program as a whole does, not whether it helps someone somewhere who doesn’t really need it. The overwhelming majority of recipients will be middle class and because it gives extra to Pell Grant recipients, people from poor families get the most help. |

While I'm still pissed about this vote buying give away crap Biden is trying, my question is, where'd the hell does he think he got the authority to do this. Was told in civics class that Congress controls the purse strings of government. This national emergency bull crap Biden is pulling is just that, bull crap. Buying votes. This guy has absolutely no idea what the hell he's doing to this country. I've never campaigned for any candidate but, I'm looking at doing it just to get this idiot out of office. 
Oh, and while we're on the topic of Biden, close down the damn border. I fully expect Biden/Pelosi and Schumer to advocate to give all those illegal aliens the right to vote before the 2024 election. Need I say why? as hell!!

- I don't mind if some people get robbed and relieve others of money.
- I don't mind if some people get to 'learn' to become 'teachers' right out of highschool then on to college WITH NO REAL WORLD LIFE EXPERIENCE.
- I don't mind if some people get to major in a field of study that will get them NOWHERE without NGO or g0d-gov's constantly lactating teet.
- I don't mind if some people get to murder and relieve others of their life.
- I don't mind if some people get to molest and relieve others of their innocence.
- I don't mind if some people get to ignore parents about their childs gender reassignment.
- I don't mind if some people get in an elitist club where the rules of law don't apply.
- I don't mind if some people get, get, get, get, get...
Your ilk don't mind a lot of things.
