From the r/politics megathread...

Poor Biden.

I feel bad for Biden. You can’t tell me that guy wants to be doing this at this point in his life.

A very unpopular comment.

Hard to see how Biden beats Trump when he has lied on so many promises like canceling student loans and the economy is so bad because of his policies.

And the percentage of student loans that has been forgiven is small. I saw a tweet with a pie chart but I couldn't find it so I had to google.

Student loan debt totals $1.74 trillion and is held by about 43.5 million Americans, with the average monthly payment amounting to $337.

---

The administration has forgiven $136.6 billion for more than 3.7 million student loan borrowers in the first three years of Biden's presidency.

If my math is right that's ~13% of the loans have been forgiven for ~8.5% of the people with loans.
