Student loan forgiveness sounds great, but people often ask: who will pay for it? Former Ohio state senator @ninaturner explains why she says it should be part of our “social contract.”

Charlie Sykes had EXCELLENT counterpoints, including the fact that it would be unfair to the 210 MILLION adults who do NOT have student debt. Also, canceling $10K would cost, $300B and for that amount, we cut a check to EVERY adult American for $1,500. youtube.com/O0hqHf2KwfU

Look at her time line “it’s already been paid for when the loan was issued” by the way a simple google search will show that Wall Street & Banks paid back the bail out with interest. Her words change quickly #ThankYouCleveland we didn’t need a leftest Trump in Congress.
What a crock of shitsky...this country can't quit spending money as it is and now you wanna do this...good lord..I wish college was free too...and it should be...but you can't print money, at some point our kids or grandkids will pay for this.

It’s already been paid for. The lenders act like loan sharks. The interest is capitalized. They are charging 10 times more than we should be paying. A firmer CEO of one of these companies said the loans are structured to never be paid off. The Feds should go after these companies

The question that never gets asked for the military or police budget increases.
Amuses me to no end. All of these ppl are saying that higher education should be free. Yet not 1 college nor 1 educator is willing to say how they are going to lower tuition or salary for this. Again
Who pays the $TRILLIONS we commit to military-industrial CEOs?
Screw your “social contract” let’s talk about the contract you signed to get that loan instead. You signed it, not me, not any other tax payer, so YOU pay it.
