Joy Ann Reid asked Elizabeth Warren whether there wasn’t a “moral hazard” involved in cancelling the student debt. But the moral hazard was making the attainment of a higher education such a weight on the back of people simply trying to better themselves to begin with.

That's avoiding the question and I'm someone who wants my debt canceled, or, at least the interest paid applied to the principal which I think is a good compromise because many people would have paid their loans over many times over.

In the end it's all about control, keeping people perpetually in fear, makes them much easier to control. The founders were not dummies, in order to get consensus, they put guardrails in place to protect elite interests in positions of power. Embodied souls differ on that.

Joy Ann Reid is a water carrier for corporate Democrats. She has less business hosting a cable news show than I do.

Moral hazards only seem to exist for the poor. I'd say there's a moral hazard in allowing a man who wants to treat his workers like slaves (over at Amazon) one of the richest men in history.

At great personal sacrifice I paid for degrees for my 3 children, if college loans can be forgiven I want to be paid back.

Well said, question for .@SenWarren should be, why is it that 25-30 years ago the cost of four years of college is now the cost of ONE semester at some universities, with large bank accounts already from grants & endowments???

joy ann is a moral hazard in and of herself. i hever never seen a more blatant propagandist other than lou dobbs and to be fair they are about the same in their levels of harm they have done by misleading so many americans

Of course, that way tuition can be used like health insurance to leverage employees into working for them out of necessity. It’s emblematic of the inhumane way we look at and abuse labor for the benefit of the already rich at the expense of the poor.

elizabeth warren didnt support the candidate who tried to cancel it, and instead supported the candidate who made it so bankruptcy didnt absolve student debt. she is not an ally
