Biden doesn't want to fight for 50,000 student loan relief. It's too hard

[Dr. Truth]

The electoral college decides who the president will be Not the popular vote....

Doesn't matter if the people voted or not, They are not part of the elite factor that brings in the president.

Based on the total votes per candidate of in that state . If a state is majority Blue or red the college will lean that way so yes voting matters .

Brother, please don't take the following personally and don't get defensive. It is an admirable quality for a man to just admit he may be wrong and reconsider his position rather than continue to argue something just to remain "right" in his eyes.



I think that you are making some inaccurate assumptions. I suspected that you really had no idea what impact Biden's student loan plan had on Black folks and were actually stating your position based on your intuition rather than knowledge. I did use ChatGPT to inquire about the percentage (obviously you didn't know) and the answer was "As of 2022, Black borrowers held approximately 23% of the total student loan debt in the United States." This means that 77% of total student loan debt is held by non black folks. I am sure there are other ideas that can better benefit Black folks.



I do have a question for you and other black folks that are looking for the government to bail them out of their student loan debt. What would be your advice for your children when they graduate from High School?

The ol passive aggressive disclaimer huh... same approach you had with your original question that you did your research on and already had the answer to... Let you tell it... But to your point bruh I didn't know nor did I care to know the % because that's irrelevant to any reason as to why I support the idea of student loan forgiveness... To me this is not a Black or white issue or an issue of political alignment, it's a pretty basic concept... I said this in my earlier post "people choose not to see the economic impact it has on not just the country, but more specifically for Black people/economics..."

My advice to my kids, with or without college, make sure you continue to educate yourself, embrace critical thinking, align yourself to more than one cause, because it's some dumbass people out here who fall for anything, are narrow-minded and will try to bring you down...

Personal responsibility, and duty to yourself, is a right-wing talking point only in a world where we seek to remove all responsibility. I agreed with that, but I have seen what doing so does to people. It ruins lives because you have to go through something to become great.

I also dont begrudge anybody who does not pay a loan if the question is between life and doing so. Thats not really the case for most though is it? In a lot of cases, especially in Atlanta, folks not paying their loans are young women mad about not being where they feel they should be, and mad about not having the life of social media influencers. Even more so when these same women look down on the blue collar brothers who didnt have as much, yet is part of the workforce who contirbutes to make these loans possible. People should simply pay back what they promised to pay back. If they cant, they can get into a public service role for a few years and get it paid off before leaving to do whatever they want.

Bruh let's not reach... I was VERY specific in what I was referring to in regards to the right-wing talking point... If you chose to overlook that then it just validates why this is a dead end conversation for me... Basically your stance is it won't benefit you directly, so you don't support it - acknowledged and I'll move on... I'm not sure what a bummy bitch looking down on a working class man has to do with anything, but I get it gotta make a stretch to make a point... But you got it tho, I'm not up for the back n forth...
