People are saying Biden won by having a moderate message, so progressives need to be very careful. But there is no evidence Biden won by having a moderate message. Based on Congressional races results, there’s just as good a chance he would’ve won by a bigger margin being bolder.

45 million voters hold college loan debt that’s crippling them. How would it have been bad politics to tell them that if you elect us we’ll cancel those debts? Especially since a good argument is made for how much it would stimulate the economy for the money to be in their hands!

Government shouldn't subsidize loans. That's the reason College is so expensive. We also should provide loans for those seeking majors that lead to little or no earnings capacity. If govt is going to be involved, it should help with trade schooling.

How are we going to pay for canceling college debt? Marianne Williamson has a few ideas...

As if that is ever gonna happen with Dems leading.

The only voters that matter in this regard is the Wall Street banks that own those loans and Biden.

Plus young people without college debt are more likely to get married, start a family, buy a house, grow the economy.

Kind of like buying votes, don't you think ?
Replying to @marwilliamson
There are much fairer ways to stimulate the economy than paying off just certain peoples loans which they took promising to pay back. Poor idea.
Replying to @marwilliamson
I agree!

This absolutely needs to happen or they won’t survive the insurmountable debt!
