Trump team eyes quick rollback of Biden student debt relief

Oh for crying out loud...that is like saying that the "hand" didn't say/do it, the "puppet" did.

Answer this question...if any state or local govt declined to follow the shut down orders...what happened then?

I don’t know but I am guessing a lot of MAGA folks could tell me because all I heard was how RDS never shut Florida down…

Nothing I know of, do you have an example of some kind of fine/punishment?

Seven states—Arkansas, Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming—did not issue orders directing residents to stay at home from nonessential activities in March and April 2020 in response to the coronavirus pandemic. The 43 other states all issued orders at the state level directing residents to stay at home except for essential activities and closing businesses that each state deemed nonessential.[1] Read more about those stay-at-home orders here.

Only one of the seven states that did not issue a stay-at-home order did not require any businesses to close: South Dakota. All seven states also closed schools to in-person instruction.

This is another "issue" where low information voters that have been blaming Biden for the implementation issues per loan forgiveness and the alternative payment plans are going to quickly find out that Trump and the Republicans are going to be far worse for them.

Wtf - nobody is worse off for paying off their contractual debts.

Student loans should only be for the dollar amount it would take to go to community college the first two years and an instate public university the second two years.

Get private loans for the rest and let them be forgivable via bankruptcy. Time for these private schools to spend some of their endowment on tuition relief.

Grinnell College has over a billion dollars as an example.

Yep, college endowment funds are out of control and could certainly be used to lower tuition costs.

I’m an electrician. A couple of years ago, I worked out in Gloucester, MA for a month straight. It’s under Boston’s Local 103. $63 an hour plus another $30 an hour in benefits. About a 90-95 dollar an hour package. We didn’t know until we got there, that Local 103 doesn’t have OT in their contract. Everything after 8 hours is double time, including Saturdays, Sundays and Holidays. We were working 7-12’s for 32 days straight. The one week over Labor day, I had 32 regular hours and 48 double time hours. A little over $7000 check for that week. There’s definitely money to be made out there for skilled labor.

However, those hours sound crazy! 🤨

I’ve got no problem having the gov pay for college as long as student passes each class and the student commits two years to the country in some capacity….Army, Navy, Air Force, or Marines, or Space X, or Coast Guard. Some form of government job as a way to pay back free schooling while also getting paid for working for the government. Nothing is free in this life.

Don’t want to do that? Then pay your own way via loans or work while you go to college like most people.

They pay back the money by making more money thus paying more taxes.

It can, sure.

But you would be better off living in a college library after your McDonald’s shift than to pay 60-80 grand to get that “diverse learning” experience as a means to earning a piece of paper that says, “Bachelor of Arts in English Literary Studies awarded to Joe Blow May 2025.”

The piece of paper might as well say, “Congratulations on reading a wide array of novels and learning a bunch of culturally inclusive pedagogies that provided copious opportunities for bloviating knowledge in impractical, pragmatically useless manners. We hope you enjoyed your 4-6 years of drinking, drugging, video-gaming, and fledgling attempts at scoring lots of pussy, all under the guise of higher learning and esoteric knowledge. Good luck at your $16/hour entry-level job at Wells Fargo. We trust this whole experience has been invaluable and has set you up for a successful, richly rewarding life. Thank you for becoming an alumnus and don’t forget to give back to the institution that made all of this possible for you when we send future letters in the mail asking for donations.”

The End.

That's highly specific...
