    You’re telling me that instead of taking their excess cash from interest payment freezes and paying the principal of the loans, people spent it and spent even more and are still going to complain how they have student loans?

        Me thinking people should pay off loans they’ve taken out makes me a qanoner? I bought a car that had a loan…I paid it off.

        That’s how it works.

        You calling anyone who doesn’t blindly trust broad loan forgiveness just continues the divide in our country. Why do you just try to insult people that have different opinions than you?

          No, you jumping to stupid conclusions based on a clickbait headline might though.

          If you actually read the article, the data they’re quoting says nothing about debt increasing, only that the number of people in that age range with credit cards increased in the few years around when the loan payment pause. You know why that might have happened? Maybe because around the same time covid was happening and everything moved online and needed a card instead of using cash?

            Not to mention the number of people that were living paycheck to paycheck at the time they … lost those paychecks.

            This guy would insist on people going hungry instead of having a drop of empathy

          The immediate jump to insulting people and sarcasm tells on yourself so hard. Nobody can have any help because it doesn’t help you. So angry for no reason.
