What have we come to when you have better prospects of economic prosperity OUTSIDE of the USA?????
@@sublimetrance Same, brother. I have considered working abroad as well and just not paying the loans back. Skills like yours and mine (atmo science BS & MS, math minor) are seemingly more valuable other places these days, where people want to explore and create, and without such extreme pressure on immediate return. We're being pushed out. I could go on, but I am sure I have nothing new to say.
Pretty much, that being said it’s another tool against a recession.if we can make payments and not fall to a recession, then it becomes another tool that can be used to boost demand.
None of these people are reducing their spending. That’s the problem. If they did reduce their spending, they’d be able to pay off their debt. They don’t.
@@sublimetrance Bye! The US doesn’t need anymore self-made victims.
Student loan forgiveness? What's next credit card forgiveness car loan forgiveness mortgage loan forgiveness pay you're own bills 💸💵
Everyone is a victim when there to lazy to think and work. I’m a victim of working and paying taxes for every dirt bag that expects free college through loan forgiveness. This world isn’t easy….so either swim or drown. I figured it out without college and it starts with dedication…followed by mistakes…. Learning from your mistakes… and never giving up.
You struggled so everyone else should too 😅 you're miserable
@@CocoaPuff01 I’m miserable because I’ve been working for the last 35 years and Bidenomics is making me pay thousands of dollars more every year for the same things. I’ve had a hard time encouraging people to vote for Trump, but people need to learn from their mistakes and I need to suffer along with them because of that choice. Either way I’m pretty close to retiring and I’ve made great choices with my investments and wish I wouldn’t be judged by others by the nice things I have because they weren’t given to me by Uncle Sam , I had to work hard to achieve them.
So where does the forgiven debt go ? Who is held liable ? It's a loan!
Free government money
Oh no! Less vacations, impulsive spending and Starbucks? How ever are they going to survive?? 😂

it will take him OVER 30 YEARS to pay that back....
Nothing. There I saved you time

Yes, PAY YOUR DEBTS..
It’s called being an adult and accepting accountability!! Don’t borrow someone else’s money, regardless if it’s a lender or a friend, to spend on college/living expenses etc and sign a promissory note to pay them back once you graduate from college. The lender honored his end and loaned you the money for years and years!! Accept accountability!! Stop with the pity and “I’m too stupid” story!!! If you are smart enough to go/graduate from college…and you should be smart enough to Be Responsible and Accept Accountability!!
Yes, why don't the corporations that took the PPP money pay back that debt to the American people? Oh, the govt forgave that debt? But not student loans. Cool. Millennials will have political power by the end of this decade and we'll forgive all student debt then. So, we'll pay for now.@@marklewen9384
@@lyraserpentine894 yes, dont pay your debts FREELOADER. What a quality person you must be. WAH WAH WAH....i entered a mutual contract, knew the terms, AND NOW THE OTHER PARTY WANTS ME TO HONOR MY END OF THE DEAL!!# How dare they ?? ?
@@Fiftycents50Agree. But why is it not a problem when people go bankrupt but student loans stay? How about the companies that got bailed out with our taxes but the C suite folks keep their huge bonuses and killer pay? Just super funny to me how many hated the thought of every day folks getting max 10k off their loans for an education that is basically needed nowadays, but love paying for companies, rich people, and idiots who buy actually useless things.
Your Harvard degree is worthless now
If they went to Harvard, I’m sure they’re making decent money and can pay their student loans. Unless they are the legacy students who come from wealthy families and so they don’t have any student loans.
