wow! he canceled 8% of the student debt in convoluted, means-tested policies that only benefit 10% of those who were promised debt relief a year ago? what a hero! some of these plans have people continue making payments but it being forgiven in 20-25 years. absolute chefs-kiss of liberal policy.

The situation for kids and families at the border is vastly improved over what it was under Trump

    I have to preface this with a fervent Fuck Joe Biden

    but

    my husband's loans were totally forgiven last fall, years earlier than expected, just on a normal IDR/IBR plan, and (based on payment history) I think mine will probably get the same treatment later this year

    We don't have public service jobs, just average capitalist wage-slave bullshit until we started doing our small engine stuff full-time last summer, so Derp Brandon did something for us.

    Was it nearly enough? Can I actually afford my house or groceries or medical expenses? No, absolutely not, Joe Bidet hasn't helped me very much. But he did take a few tens of thousands of debt off our back, which I guess deserves acknowledgement.

    Tbqh, Trump's elimination of the health insurance mandate helped us a fuckton more. We were getting absolutely fucked on premiums for insurance with deductibles so high we couldn't afford to use it at all.
