As someone who qualifies for this "forgiveness" (which I would bet still never happens now that the votes are already bought and now not needed), I can tell you people absolutely made payments, and this would be a budget increase.
I’ve never understood this argument. If you want to pass student loan debt legislation, do it through Congress.
Should they donate it to help pay off MTG’s PPP loans?After student loan forgiveness, 73% of borrowers plan to spend more on travel and dining out
Those receiving President Biden's student debt forgiveness won't see an actual check in the mail, but lower monthly payments may change how recipients budget.www.cnbc.com
That argument is so bad, it’s not even an argument. PPP was a huge mistake. It was a huge mistake made by CONGRESS. This student loan debt never went through Congress.
If I have student loans and I get $20,000 lopped off and get smaller payments, I’m not putting that extra money towards trips and going out to eat. I’m putting it towards my student loans. I don’t give a rip about the economy while I’ve got debt over my head.
Did Congress give the power to the President to alter student loan payments during a national emergency? Was that power limited by congress? Should be pretty simple to answer.
Hey. I wasn’t the one that declared Covid over and then tried to pass student loan debt based on the “emergency” that Covid is. Take it out on Joey.
I agree with this but my taxes were less under Trump and I’m not wealthy.
We will be paying a price for that soon if the GQP blocks the Dems appropriately taxing the rich and corporations. Plus our taxes are going to start stepping up from the 2017 giveaway to the rich
So confused how anyone thinks these two topics even remotely relate.
It worked and Joe’s handlers are laughing at them. Problem is in two years these same idiots will vote for him again.
The President has the absolute power to decide what is and isn’t an emergency. No exceptions. He can declare an emergency over one day and enact the emergency the next. There’s no limits on the authority. Remember when Trump made up a border emergency to build a stupid wall that doesn’t stop immigrants?
You are trying to split hairs. Modify student loans during emergencies like natural disasters or war. Thinking like this is so far gone, nothing can probably help you. It’s bad when the President and Speaker of the House say that the President doesn’t have the power. But then a year later something has changed and they suddenly have that power. What exactly changed?
