“First fix the issue that impacts ME (loan forgiveness), then later fix the root cause that impacts literally everyone (high tuition). And shit on anyone who doesn’t prioritize my loan forgiveness first! Because I signed a legally-binding contract, spent the money, but now don’t feel like I should have to pay it back under the terms I agreed to! Fuck all the students who get loans after me, those who are paying them back as per their loan agreements, and those who chose not to go to college because they knew they couldn’t afford the loans. Amirite? Me me me!”
-idiots pretending their selfish cries about getting their loans forgiven equates to liberalism
Loan forgiveness is an important step, but it’s not the first or even the most important step. It’s very telling where your priories are (and how fake your politics are) if you make forgiving your student loans the first and loudest piece of the actual problem.
