Fucking hate the Imperialist Democratic Party, and think there's basically no chance they'll actually pass meaningful student debt relief under Biden.

But a universal vanquishing of the first $50,000 held in student debt by graduates will meaningfully improve the conditions of tens of millions of Americans; for both graduates, and those who did never attended a post-secondary institution alike.

57% of Americans support "forgiving up to $50,000 in student loans for individuals who live in households that make less than $250,000 a year", including a majority of those who never attended a College.

This just seems rich considering Chapo often mocked liberals who were incapable of admitting that Trump can do good things at times, and now they may fall into the same trap of opposing on instinct everything coming from the Biden camp.

Actually people should keep suffering, because stopping it with the stroke of a pen would alienate the working class

      You know that thing that affects ~40% of the population and keeps a roof over their heads? It's a fringe issue, aksually

      A similar percentage of American households rent as hold student debt. Therefore both issues most be wholly unimportant, and literally only matter to City Dwelling PMC Libs.

      Nobody without a diploma rents obviously. Showing some more of the working class = rural brainworms, and many people rent even in rural areas.

        I... what? Our base isn't generally "middle Americans" and I don't think we've claimed that. What's your suggestion for the optimal messaging or tactical approach.
