US President-elect Joe Biden will not go out of his way to cancel $50,000 in student loan debt by executive action amid the pandemic, ignoring calls from some of the top Democrats to do so.
He wouldn't want people to get the wrong idea about him.
People forget how bad Obama's approach to the great recession was economically speaking. A $600/wk unemployment guarantee the way we did under COVID would have ended the recession quickly.
Obama was too afraid to spend because he worried about inflation despite every economist working under him advocating more spending. Ben Bernanke's academic research is extremely strong in specifically the response to the US Great Depression and Japan's role in creating the lost generation.
The guy is only remembered fondly because of how shit Trump is.
I don’t think this is true, he’s remembered fondly for the same reason Clinton is, because the lib propaganda machine says he is, because ineffectual centrist garbage must be portrayed as the best anyone can hope for.
He also pushed for austerity in the Covid negotiations.
Dude is going to have single digit approval ratings before 2022

Obama, despite being personally likeable, was under 50% approval within a year.

I too love to fake being a progressive, just to end up passing more neoliberal austerity politics. Wait, why am I at 6% approval rating ??
-François Hollande
lol he hit 4% at one point iirc
Is there any SocDem party this doesn't apply to?
Lets be fair, some actual socdems like Corbyn or Morales are really alright. The rest just went ahead and chugged in all that neolib ideology.
