Bootlicker. Seems pretty clear from this thread that your values are not wanted here. Leave.

Yeah, you're "saying" it. Big deal. You know how this works, and no matter what you may "say", the rich will get the tax breaks, the loan forgiveness, the government programs, and everyone else can go fuck themselves.

So spare me.

Poor people take out student loans. What the fuck do you think those Pell Loans were that would have qualified for $20k forgiveness under this program? You've bought the "I didn't directly benefit from this, so therefore it's not beneficial to society as a whole" propaganda

That, or it's just run of the mill "I didn't get anything from this, so I don't want anybody to," with a thin veneer of false empathy.

Oh edgy... Keep going, I'm almost there honey ;)

Just like taxes are theft too... Fuck off and read a book.

It's helpful to the dems to have another unpopular court decision, but it's up for debate whether this is straight forward conservative court blocking the dems or the dems knowingly pushing something that would get struck down to help drive outrage

Brain dead take.

Also... Quora just seems fucking wild

Everyday Twitter erodes its worth for short-term wealth.

This is, and will always be, the main push of capitalism. This isn't some cute new term like "enshittification" or something, this is just good ol fashion rent seeking and it's capitalism working as intended.

The beauty of this fediverse thing is, that... if you don't like it you can make your own instance and do the thing you want there instead. Bye.

Unfortunately, she's dead which means she will never even have the capacity to understand what her decision meant.

I don't know, I like Sotomayor. And Brown-Jackson seems alright. And I really don't have much opinion on Kagan aside from the fact that I usually agree with her rulings. As for Conservatives, I disagree with all of them almost always, but Gorsuch at least seems to care about consistency, and I think his views on Native affairs is admirable.

You're talking about two different problems. But good job conflating the two if that was your intention. Which it seems it was.

Lol, oh honey...

Yeah, when are they going to start clawing back all of those forgiven ppp loans?

What is this focus on tech workers? This program would have benefit 1 in 8 Americans. This isn't just tech workers.

Well that's the only reason the party still exists, so...

Oh wow, your pedantic argument really swayed me!
