The move followed a decision last year that the Biden administration had overstepped its authority by trying to forgive more than $400 billion in student loans.

    Kids were pushed for decades to take large loans at age 18 because they were told constantly that if they didn’t go to college, they’d be stuck flipping burgers, digging ditches or whatever. Of course they’d take the loan at that point. Honestly, they’ve been set up to fail. This is just another tool used to trap people in wage slavery. Forgive the damn debt. I don’t care if it’s “unfair” to those who don’t have college debt. I don’t, but I still want it to happen.

      That debt and no real direction in life was why I dropped out before it became insurmountable.

      It does me less harm for the debt to be forgiven than pursued.
