I’ll never understand why people who don’t have student loan debt are so opposed to letting debt forgiveness happen. Actually, I do understand why but I think it’s spiteful and selfish and I can’t comprehend being such an enormous dick. They don’t think anyone else should get to benefit if THEY don’t get to. This is a perfect example of what’s wrong with modern American culture.
@lemontart I have a friend whose parents were clearly Republicans and who thinks she's a Dem but really isn't who has it imprinted on her brain cells that people pay off their own loans. I try to point out how often businesses go bankrupt, shorting everyone who contributed to their success. But she can't make the leap. She knows I'm underwater in my loans and tries not to say anything but you can hear the silence.
@TrueBloodNet sounds like a person who lacks empathy tbh. Actually I think that’s true of most people opposed to student loan forgiveness.
