Now We Know Why “The Squad” Is So Adamant About Canceling Student Debt

If student loan debt were mostly just a problem for our elected officials, you might have a point, but it's not.
It's mostly a problem for idiots who majored in Women's studies or other such useless degrees. They created their own problem. Why should sensible people be penalized?
 
The hypocrisy flows like molasses. Trump benefitted personally from his time in Washington as he cashed in every time he went on vacation. He used his properties for campaign headquarters which allowed him to skim more money off which he pocketed. Rand Paul is not a good public servant nor is Green.

Alexander Hamilton wrote in the Federalist 57 that "The aim of every political Constitution is or ought to be first to obtain for rulers, men who possess most wisdom to discern, and most virtue to pursue the common good of the society;". No Republican can be considered virtuous as they have fought against the common good. They recently supported not raising the debt limit which would have plunged this country into a financial crisis that would have hurt Americans.


This is another nothing New York Post story along the lines of the phony laptop story. There is absolutely no evidence that they support student loan forgiveness because they benefit.

Thats a big load of crap. Yeah, they support it because they owe student loan debt. Need I remind you, a congress member makes 174k a year. They need to pay their debt. They signed the contract.
 
If you don't care about the media demonizing and persecuting Trump, then you don't care if the public is informed. Do you actually believe such behavior doesn't affect how people vote?
You missed my point, Bripat! The role of the press in a free society is to hold the powerful accountable for what they have or haven't done. I have no problem with an aggressive press going after Donald Trump as long as they're reporting facts and they treat other Presidents the same way. My issue is that we ended up with a President who's quite obviously not up to the job and we got him because the Press weren't aggressive in their vetting of him. Joe Biden should never have made it out of the Democratic primaries. The whole Hunter Biden thing is so egregious that it's almost beyond belief yet for most of the media it was and is...a non story!

Here's what you said:

"I don't really care that the media was harsh with Trump...he's a big boy and knows how to deal with criticism"

And your point is what? Trump is a big boy! One of the things I liked most about him is he went toe to toe with the Main Stream Media and gave as good as he got!
Joe Biden on the other hand can't handle any of the tough questions. His policies suck. He has no answers. His response at this point is simply to attack whoever asked the question. Biden calls Doocy a dumb SOB when in fact it's Biden who's ALWAYS been the dumb SOB!
 
The media has an important job in a Democracy, FA. They need to inform the public so that we can make good choices when we go to the polls. When they don't do that important job we end up with a President and Vice President who are unsuited for the positions they hold. I don't really care that the media was harsh with Trump...he's a big boy and knows how to deal with criticism...my issue is that they protected Joe Biden during the campaign...hiding how infirm he really is. What we're getting now is the result of that failure by the media.

 
Dim politicians always have self-serving motives for everything they do. AOC wants Americans who never went to college to pay off her student loans. I can't imagine anything more loathsome.

Self-serving politicians are easy to spot. They’re different from the actual public servants like Donald Trump, Rand Paul, and Marjorie Taylor Greene who gave up so much in order to do what’s best for the country. Self-serving politicians tilt policies to benefit themselves, their families, and the cronies who help to keep them in power.
Many have equated “The Squad” to being the radical progressive version of the ideologues; they may be wrong in their Neo-Marxist perspectives, but at least they’re supposed to be true believers in their cause. Yet time and again, we’ve seen contradictions to this notion. Squad members have universally called to defund police and promote gun control while maintaining expensive personal security that their constituents could never afford. They complain about the rich while voting for their own pay raises. Now, there’s a more direct example of how their proposed policies would help them personally.
According to a report from the NY Post, most members of The Squad are deep in student debt just as they call for the Biden regime to eliminate it for them:
Many of the woke politicians who have pushed for student-loan cancellation are themselves hip-deep in school debt, federal records reviewed by The Post show.
Most members of “The Squad” — the coterie of socialist legislators led by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) — fall into this category. Collectively, they owe between $180,004 and $400,000 in student loans, the records show.
Rep. Ocasio-Cortez had a balance of between $15,001 and $50,000 in federal student loans as of 2020, according to her most recent personal financial disclosure. Despite her $174,000 annual salary, the economics major hasn’t paid off her balance, despite a zero percent interest rate and no payments due since March 2020.
It seems AOC got ripped off by paying a small fortune for a poor education.
