This case was solely about whether the executive branch has the ability to write off debt. The PPP loans were a bill passed through congress.

They don't care about the actual legal mechanisms, they want free dolla dolla bills yall.

If you are upset about this, then vote and convince others to go vote. While we're at it, also educate those new voters how many votes in Congress are needed to actually pass the things they want. And also who must be sitting in the WH so it doesn't get vetoed.

I'm looking at the folks who genuinely keep asking why didn't Dems pass debt forgiveness in 2020. Anyone confused why Dems didn't pass it either do not understand how government works, or your typical Republican trying to convince ignorant types to stay home.

Democrats are too obsessed with decorum and protecting the rotten unfair system slowly being taken over by the rich and their fascist underlings. They don't actually want to put up a fight.
Democrats are largely center-right neolibs beholden to the same whims of the moneyed elite that republicans are. Nothing is really going to change until Americans collectively break the conditioning that leads us to despise the left.

This case was solely about whether the executive branch has the ability to write off debt. The PPP loans were a bill passed through congress. Student debt forgiveness was an executive order. An executive order that a year prior to Biden writing it Pelosi herself stated that only Congress has the power to write off debt.

This was never legitimate, and no matter how angry people get over being grifted, it doesn't change the simple fact of the case. The president can't erase debt with an executive order. Only Congress can do that. Pelosi should have done it, but she didn't.
It was not an executive order. The Biden Administration was using the HEROES Act which explicitly says that the President can grant relief.

If you didn't refinance when interest rates were ridiculously low, you have only yourself to blame at this point.

If you didn't budget for having to resume your payments, you have only yourself to blame at this point.

There's nothing to do or say anymore. I'm done in a few months. I did everything correctly. It's not "fuck you, I have mine" to simply do what's expected.

Congressmembers should always be ineligible for any kind of loan forgiveness and definitely face more restrictions on any potential profiteering and corruption.

But these are 2 entirely separate issues.

"Biden and democrats secretly wanted Republicans to sue this and make it fail" is probably the absolute dumbest take that I can see. You're literally falling for the most transparent Republican strategy that they've been doing for years - actively kill Democratic policies and then spin around and say "look Democrat voters! they couldn't even pass this thing that we killed. might as well not even vote huh". I can't believe it works on some people.

Sad day but at the very least, Biden's other student loan agreement modifications will still stand and those are enormously positive changes.
