Its not resistantce David2022, its your blatant broadbushing need to blame like a child who didn't get equal parts of the cake as his sibling got.
Grow up. At what point in your life did you realize the errosion of our society was taking place? Not until it directly affected you?
Hey David2022, do some homework & stop electing people who appeal to the Populist messaging.
Its really not just about you at whatever stage of life you're at right now.
You want student loans cancelled too. For you.
And the rest of society is to step aside & applaud as you parade your big win?
You see where your cult of Populism is skewed "for me but not for thee"?
"Boomers seem very resistant to understanding.."
Oh we understand alright. We've been understanding since the 60's. As we watch our civil rights & human rights being chipped away at because you chose to selfishly follow the cult of Populism over the fking cliff, dragging the rest of us down with you.
For instabce, the David2022's rant of 'Cancel Student Debt' by Exec Order is concerning when not all your wishes can be done by Exec Order. Your resistance to understanding that process is more than telling, David2022.
Who are you anyway?
Yes David2022, Your resistance to understanding that process is more in line with the RW goal of an authoritarian govt, by stripping the Powers of the 3 branches of our govt.
Subverting Congressional Powers to the Executive.
Is that what you are after?
Please explain David2022, how that Populist mantra repeated ad nauseum by the 'what about MEers' & those who dupe you into believing it, misses the Subverting ofCongressional Powers to the Executive part of the equation.
You're a smart guy David2022. Let's hear the explanation.
Here's a more fair approach, David2022, that not one of you have bothered to address in making actual progress.
I honestly dont want people making $100000/yr and up to have their debt cancelled unless they work 5 years in public service or were scammed by unscrupulous schools.
We can use that money for pre-k in underserved communities, or for giving cash payments to poor seniors.

Perhaps you can move your goal forward by calling on your fav Congresspeeps to write such a bill or Cosign on to one already written & ready to present to the Dept of Education, since the decision you're seeking is in their hands. Not the Exec Branch of President Biden.
Start there David2022.
Its a process and honestly your approach is a bit unnerving since pushing for the use of executive authority to cancel student debt, is perilously similar to "Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld's unitary executive theory."
We are not an authoritarian govt. Yet.
Do you understand a little more David2022?
