I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees it that way. I'm not a Republican and I resent being called one or a Trump follower or whatever name these crooks call moderates who object to their idiotic, rob from the rich to give to the lazy or too dumb to get a degree that would help you repay your loan policies. It just makes me so angry to read either complete foolishness or outright lies. He and others complained about Trump and this is even worse as it is about spending $400B ==> WITH A FRIGGING B <== that he had no Constitutional authority to do. BTW, I helped a friend get some aid for her small business. When the economy started to recover, she couldn't get workers to come back to work because they were being paid too much to stay home! She's in the process now of retiring and giving the business to the remaining employees. There are some news stories here where some took advantage of the no eviction rules here to squat in homes that were the only investments some had to pay for their retirement.

Hi Breeze, IMHO Biden's student debt proposal was a cheap mid term election trick, and oh yes by the way an over reach of presidential power. Biden knew it was not in his power and proposed it in an effort for his party pick to up the youth/college vote - make them an offer they could not refuse. Young folks do have the right to vote their pocket book - just like all of us do. Let's hope they have gotten a bit of experience about getting played by slick talking, do nothing politicians. When the young realize that our slowing economy and increasing interest rates will also make their job prospects dimmer. I hope they also realize the end result of nice sounding legislation that dumps huge amounts of fiscal stimulus that imposes inflation on all aspects of the cost of living. Those increases in cost of living result in student loan debt repayment becoming MORE DIFFICULT. The process of voting is much more complex than the color of a candidates skin or gender. As Obama so aptly said: "Election outcomes have consequences". Believing the eloquent sayings of a sociopathic liar is a rude lesson on what not to vote for. 'If You Are Not a Liberal When You Are Young, You Have No Heart, and If You Are Not a Conservative When Old, You Have No Brain' Somewhere along the walk of life, we learn. In typical fashion Biden's anger was directed to everyone but himself , for his own cheap self serving tricks/lies. Bob
