First, President Biden, when running for President….
NEVER RAN ON THE PROMISE OF COMPLETE STUDENT LOAN FORGIVENESS.
His education plan included other things..but COMPLETE STUDENT LOAN FORGIVENESS WAS NOT ONE OF THEM.
THAT was from Bernie and Warren – you know, the candidates WHO LOST.
So, for those whining about complete forgiveness, why don’t you stay on Bernie and Warren about SPONSORING THE BILL THAT NEEDS TO PASS TO GET TO PRESIDENT BIDEN’S DESK FOR HIM TO SIGN.
So, President is means testing student loan forgiveness.
Make under $150,000, and you get $10,000 in forgiveness.
Here come the whiners about why Ten Thousand Dollars is ‘ nothing’.
Nothing?
Let’s look at the stats.
$10K would wipe out debt for 33% of borrowers and at least half of it for another 20%. That is significant. Be wary of anyone telling you different. https://t.co/nE1wJZb9Qd

$10,000 would wipe out the complete student loan balance for 33% of all student loan borrowers.
It would wipe out 50% of the balance for the next 20% of borrowers.
So, $10,000 would help wipe out completely or up to half of the student loan debt for 53% of all student loan borrowers.
Up to $40,000 in student loan debt, is the next 20% of student loan borrowers. So, in the $20 – 40k of student loan debt, the President would be wiping out 49 down to 25% of their student loan debt. We are now up to over 70% of all student loan borrowers.
As far as the means test, the President is using almost triple the mean salary of the United States for you to qualify.
The Student Loan Forgiveness crowd is showing their entire azzes.
The complete and utter arrogance of threatening to withhold your vote if President Biden doesn’t forgive all your student loans…that level of selfishness.
Progressive socialist don't want $10k, $20k, $30k or $50k erased student loans, they want all of nothing. Either President Biden & Democrats erase 100% of student loans or they will continue to threaten us with a Republican leadership & make sure we have a Republican leadership.

Why does it feel like everyone with over 100k in student debt is leaving out a huge part of the story?
— Yurok Around The Clock (@HellcatBruce) May 28, 2022
Because, they are.
Why should society pay student loans for people who decided to be professional students because they really don't want to work in the profession their degree is in or at all?

It’s the fact that y’all are comparing your student loan debt to a Massacre of innocent children for me. It truly shows me your level of selfishness & lack of Humanity. You signed up for your student loan debt these children didn’t sign up to be 🔫 & 💀 DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT pic.twitter.com/pKo0Urc6sN

This entire thread is RECEIPTS
🧵 MDs who are upset about not qualifying for The $10k in forgiveness confuse me. Even if there were no government forgiveness programs (I’ll get to these later) the lowest paid MD starts at $200,000 ($130k net) after training. If they work for 25 yrs that’s $5million ($3.25 net)

Yet the same profile of buyers that are white are able to buy homes. It’s not the student loans, it’s the racism. You shouldn’t allow white media to cover up redlining which is still going on

The real reason student debt cancellation "movement leaders" are upset is that if a majority of borrowers get a majority of their student debt forgiven and they don't, they'll be exposed as rich spoiled brats using poor people's debt burden as leverage to benefit themselves.

Listen.
You taking out student loan as an adult with no one holding a gun to your head or shackling you to the Financial Aid office chair when you could have gotten up and walked away is NOT the same as slavery.
The end.

Let's be clear:
This is a manipulative statistic.
A doctor-lawyer couple starting out as renters with a combined income of $800,000 and a total student debt of $450,000 would be a "negative wealth" household.
It still doesn't make them poor or unable to pay their debts. https://t.co/ImL3KDnBqz

If you're quoting statistics on how black ppl are disproportionately affected by student debt yet advocating student loan forgiveness for EVERYONE but not reparations for black Americans, you're full of it. How will this move black ppl from owning less than 1% of America's wealth

"Reliant upon the INCOMES of college-educated folks" – WFT?
MORE college-educated people are reliant upon the incomes of non-college-educated folks in some form or fashion.
Like plumbers, mechanics, carpenters, electricians, etc.
What a stupid, narrow-minded view of society.

This was a terrible issue for Liz and Bernie to push out. Making a bunch of people with opportunities feel ok standing at the front of the line. Making them feel like the people on the other side were the selfish ones. Equating their narrow self interest with the common good.

It was *never* about a “Green New Deal.”
It was *never* about “fighting for people we don’t know!”
It was *always* about blackmailing marginalized people with the threat of white nationalism:
To get their #%&@ing student debt canceled.

This country could compete globally & spend less money on many things if we gave every child a solid PreK-12 education.
Progressives want free college & student loan forgiveness, while telling millions fuck off if you were failed by your public school system.

Press secretaries never do.
But if she goes on to be a strong voice for the center-left among the constellation of DSA leftist media pundits, she’s needed there, too.
