lol if this passes not only am I never paying it, I'm never paying taxes again
i tried this before the pandemic and they garnished my bank account. lol
I live abroad and could 100% offshore my financial life but it has been too big a pain in the ass to go through with. but this would do it
:biden-troll: "What? We never said 'forgive'! We were saying 'force give', as in, we are going to force you to give us an inconceivable amount of money"
We've altered the deal. Pray we don't alter it any further
“You have twenty-four hours. And to show that we are serious, you have twelve hours.”
:freedom-and-democracy: "We're from the government and we're here to take your money"
218 congresspeople now have a concrete record of voting to reinstate debt on millions of people. Now watch as Dems never hold their feet to the fire about this during the elections.
Debt is for the poors. The rich have infinite debt capacity. :trump-feed:
Retroactive interest.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
:nuke: :nuke: :nuke:
I went into public service with big loans specifically because I could serve my community without going bankrupt.
I'm at my wits end, this country is a fucking nightmare.
Yeah I know some people who will be very fucked over if this passes from the PSLF forgiveness programs or whatever. Only small silver lining I can see is that most of them are doing fairly well and this may pivot them into radicalizing
You can pry my student loan money from my cold dead hands you fucking vultures
I mean sure the senate won't pass it but how would this even work. Just suddenly "oh you now owe use a bunch of money you didn't before, eat shit"?
PR for the chud that screaming "it's unfair" that student loan got canceled while their housing loan is not, all that crap that they cried about.
I realize that those people technically exist but they're statistically insignificant when it comes to the overall electorate. I can't imagine the majority of their base wants this.
I realize the GOP's strategy is to appeal to an increasingly small number of people but this shit just seems suicidal.
The gop strategy is “whatever is bad in your life is due to this minority, we will make then suffer as punishment. No we will not make your life better, that’s impossible until after we do a genocide”
Lmao, when they're not choose worst strategy to go with. Don't worry, the democrat probably top this in a month.

Have you met Republicans?
I mean sure the senate won’t pass it
The GOP might use the bill as a bargaining chip. If you pass it - we pinky swear that you can have a tiny iota of progress on the debt ceiling as a treat.
I mean sure the senate won’t pass it
Are you sure the council of liches wouldn't do it as a wholesome bipartisan compromise? :smoothskin:
True representatives of the people! Here here! We all definitely wanted this!
Is there an adventurism anyone could do to shred every hard drive at the department of education and loan servicers?
Asking for a friend.
Can I sue the government for promissory estoppel? What if I had a legitimate reason to believe I would not have to pay interest on my loans and can prove that reasonable assumption lead me to financial loss?
I think this actually passing would invite lawsuits under this and various other theories, but the 0% chance of it passing means they didn’t really have to consider that. It’s a dumb stunt by and for dumb people. Par for the course, more or less.
promissory estoppel
Harry Potter spells aren't going to help you in real life, sweaty.
Americans truly are a new level of braindead if they keep voting those people in
This would trigger not just an instant recession, but a wave of mass suicides. For that reason I foresee a ten percent chance of it happening.
Encourage the rage of these college students and hopefully we can see some elected officials experience a Riot Of Kings Landing situation
