1. Ugh. Here we go.

[Butterflylady]

4. Yep......

7. You beat me to it, sigh

2. I agree with Warren and Schumer and hope Biden

will get there.

3. hes not even in office yet!

13. Seriously

For a minute there, I thought I'd miss Inauguration Day.

5. I think we need to find out why college is so expensive.

Where does all that money go? Not payroll.

[Laelth]

14. Yes. Payroll.

Most schools outlay over 75% of their income to payroll. Education is very human resource intensive.

8. 10k is fine.

It’s a good start. Let’s give Biden a chance before we jump down his throat.

9. What do people that didn't go to college get? Doesn't seem fair to them.

[DURHAM D]

15. Also some people actually paid off their student debt.

What do they get?

[OAITW r.2.0]

19. OMG!!!!!

Seriesly, you do realize that Biden is floating a big picture discussion which will go through a House/Senate negotiation on what the debt forgiveness plan details are that will become law, right?

22. Why do people who don't have kids not qualify for child tax credits?

Why do married people get tax benefits that single people don't?

Why do home-owners get tax breaks that renters don't?

The government wants to incentivise certain things (higher education, home-ownership, population replacement). There's nothing inherently wrong with a bill that doesn't apply to everyone as long as it's balanced out by other programmes.

Biden is also proposing $1.9 trillion in stimulus spending including increased unemployment benefits, bail outs for small businesses, etc. It's not like people who didn't go to college aren't going to benefit somewhere in there.

10. Yep. $10K is really weak sauce. n/t

11. I have an idea. Take the public service loan forgiveness program that is a scam-

With its fractional approval rate, and enforce the god damn policy like bush intended——- 10 years of service and ten years of on time payments and you get it wiped out. I had 18 years of in time payments and 22 years of public service and got ZERO credit..and they fucking raised my payment for even applying for the program....The people who decide whether or not you meet the guidelines, get a cut of the money you are paying back. Class action lawsuit PLEASE!!! Someone......

12. Biden is right

I adore Elizabeth Warren, but the $50,000 probably cost her the election. Biden won. We need a lot of things. $10,000 is the right amount.

18. What do you think about Republicans attempts to subvert democracy?

Do you have any idea what Biden/Harris are facing?

[GemDigger]

20. Want it all, want it now. If anything, with the expenses for just the last year,

we would be lucky for $10,000.

Instead of a lump sum, I think it should be a percentage of the persons debt. 10%, 15%, 20%, pick a percent.

Exceptions: Doctors, nurses, teachers, they should have it all taken care of.

People that spent a fortune so they can figure out how to bake brownies or some other useless, minimal paying field shouldn't get shit.

[relayerbob]

21. Just fucking stop it

[StarfishSaver]

23. Oh, good Lord

People used to wait at least until the Democratic president said "So help me, God" before going after them for not doing enough fast enough well enough.
