Robert ReichIf we can cancel trillions in taxes for a handful of billionaires, we can cancel student loan debt for over 40 million Americans.
Dancingwiththebeloved@rbreich yep. The billionaire tax break was/is 4,500 times the size of the student loan forgiveness program. 1.8 TRillion $ = 4,500 times 400 Million $. Ponder that...

I believe the billionaire break was averaged over 10 years and the student loan figure is for 30 years, so an even bigger difference
