I hope my student loans are forgiven soon. My realtor friend alerted me to a nice lakeside property that I would love to snatch up before I tour Europe in the Fall.
Yeah lol people getting Pell Grants are getting multi-million dollar lakeside properties and touring Europe.
They’re totally not just scraping by while paying out the nose for everything - causing generations to be significantly behind in home ownership, accrued wealth, or raising families.
People (like you, not you specifically) on the right moan about demographic collapse while not doing a thing to fix the reasons people cannot afford children or to even keep a roof over their heads.
Do you think that a significant number of people who would benefit from some amount of student loan forgiveness are in this situation? Do you believe that it would be good to do nothing so that some undeserving people aren't helped as well?
