See, it's funny because Joe fucking Biden has done everything he possibly can to cancel large amounts of student debt across the board, and his efforts have been stymied by Republicans in the House, Senate, and Supreme Court, and yet people will continue to blame him as "looking like he wants to cancel student debt" instead of "cancelling student debt and having those efforts reversed at every turn by republicans". Fuckers, useless fucking cunts blaming the wrong people.
The people complaining about Biden on this point are either fake grass roots actually trying to squash democratic support or their naive democrats falling for the bait from Republicans.
I don't know why folks can't see that there's very little left for Biden to try at this point.
You clearly didn't read the article.
I mean, as of monday his admin just instated a low income repayment plan where you don't have to make payments after the October payment restart if you're an individual making less than $32k/yr or married making $67k/yr household.
So there's that.
Also it stops interest capitalization
Oh, I read it. The thing is absolutely idiotic.
Edit: it literally argues that he should have implemented it in a way that wouldn't give the SC time to say it's wrong. That's fucking idiotic. That's not how it works. You think they'd be like, "oh well, can't do anything about it now." No. They'd just reinstate the fucking debt.
