GOP Senators like Romney and Grassley are saying Biden's loan forgiveness is him trying to "bribe" the voters. Hilarious. They have "serving" the people confused with "bribing" the people. And Senators who take corporate donations certainly know what legalized bribery is.

So what would you call the “vote for me and I’ll forgive student loans” approach? It’s definitely a bribe. And yes, “corporate donations” are 100% bribes too.

Yes, few in the USA seem comfortable talking about the ethics of the distribution of economic power directly or sensibly. Most prefer to just blurt out their judgments using rhetorical terms like "bribes," "handouts," "give aways," "bailouts," that sort of thing.

this is just a sweet move by america to unburden a bunch of its educated citizens so that they can, you know, contribute more to society, with big apologies both to those this does and doesn't help personally, 'cause really, it's nothing personal.

Strange we give billions in the form of endowments to these Unis and we jut gave them billions more with this student loan forgiveness. They suffer nothing .

Bribing in America is called lobbying

They have been selling us as disposable labor force, which is helping them to be rich and powerful advocates of Wall Street, the military complex, pharmaceutical industry and the oil industry.

Tax breaks for billionaires is a much bigger bribe.

restarting loan payments a couple months before an election opposed to starting them a month after the election would probably impact an election. it kinda is a bribe. how is it not?

MW: "GOP Senators like Romney and Grassley are saying Biden's loan forgiveness is him trying to "bribe" the voters." Not a single one of those whose loans have been forgiven will vote for anyone but Biden.
