      Should you collect all of it? I know quite a few small businesses that got some of that money and it kept them afloat. I have plumbers in the family who employ workers and that money kept the business going and it kept those workers receiving paychecks. Should they give that money back? Should the workers who got paychecks because of PPP have to give the money back?
      This is why I say people should do research. Yes there was fraud with PPP but not everything involved was fraud who should have to give the money back what standards should be in place when you say give the money back what about Donald Trump some of his family members got PPP funding Should they give money back?

      Different levels of education are appropriate for different people. College isn't for everybody. However, while the ratio of income to debt is shrinking the benefits from going to college, if you go to college and take on an appropriate amount of debt for your career choice, it is still better to go to college, financially speaking, than not.

      The entire program exists to subsidize the cultivation of people who are economically more useful. People who are more useful tax payers. It is not there for people to "better themselves". You are attempting to move the goalposts. A person that spends time in some institution then can't even repay their loans is an example of program failure. We do not need to incentivize more of that.

    There are folks in the comment section talking about how they were able to pay off X amount by “hunkering down”, but consider that not everyone lives in a two income household. Some folks make way less a year than what they owe. The basics have only gotten more expensive. Not every borrower is taking trips or buying new cars. Most borrowers don’t even own a home to fix up. Some folks are truly living within their means and still don’t have enough to pay back their loans AND pay for unexpected everyday life events like fixing a car, or natural disasters, or paying for healthcare.

      Whenever someone mentions the word “free” be extremely skeptical. Nothing, absolutely nothing is free. Heck, when I went to Southeast Asia a while back, even in those so-called “communist countries” there isn’t such a thing as “free”. So, when something seems too good to be true, it 100% always is, there will always be some sort of gimmick to go along with it. Shake it off and move on, pay your loans back and learn the bigger picture. Nothing, is free.

      There are other forms as well - disability forgiveness is still allowed, plus the various case-by-case for-profit & fraudulent schools. Trump, Univ of Phoenix, and the loan servicers are really mad about the latter, since a lot of defaulters are people who were never on-track to get a qualified, accredited degree. For instance, those examples of folks going to "nursing school" without any labs or clinical courses, there's no way they could ever pay that loan back.

      Russia should pay. They're the one who started an unjustified invasion.
      Also, a large portion of the aid going to Ukraine was from Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA), which sent older weapons sitting on the shelf (which we were paying for maintenance anyways) to Ukraine. The numbers you see for aid often include this, so it's not like a lump sum of cash.
      Also, the weapons sitting on shelves are becoming more dated over time and are not assets that are easily fungible. For instance, there are only so many potential buyers for F16 jets, and they are outdated compared to F35 Lightning jets. It's better to give them to Ukraine than to let them go to waste.

I was like, once it’s official, then I’d ask for a refund but not before then because I knew I would have to pay it back if the debt relief didn’t pass. So happy I trusted my gut and didn’t do this

    • @stevewhite1110

      Because the terms of the loan enumerate conditions for cancelation. Read 20 U.S.C. § 1098e(7) and any friend's student loan paperwork. The student loan program is a fiscal train wreck but hundreds of billions of dollars of forgiveness have been authorized by Congress and under the constitution no one can just ignore valid laws passed by Congress and signed by the president.

    Americans have grown with A HUGE holdback when it comes to going to universities in Europe, where ELITE tuitions usually can go for 20000 euros or less. Therefore higher education can be very valuable, just not to the US’ extent. So going to college IS valuable, just not at a students’ expense.

    The issue is not the loan themselves. I believe people understand that by borrowing money they were going to pay it back however, the real issue is the interest rates. I think a fair compromise would be no interest and people simply pay back what they initially borrowed and the only people eligible for forgiveness should be those in public service
