Biden says he is forgiving $5 billion in student debt for another 74,000 Americans - Lemmy.World

President Biden announced Friday that his administration is forgiving $5 billion in student debt for another 74,000 borrowers, marking the latest round of debt cancellation since the Supreme Court voided the president’s student loan forgiveness program. Mr. Biden said that of the borrowers who can receive relief, nearly 44,000 are teachers, nurses, firefighters and others who are eligible for forgiveness after working 10 years of public service. Almost 30,000 of those who will have their debt wiped clean have been repaying their loans for at least 20 years, but did not get the relief they earned through income-based plans, the president said. With the latest round of student loan forgiveness, more than 3.7 million Americans have had their debt erased under the Biden administration, Mr. Biden said.

Let’s see if the US public can be bought off to overlook genocide that cheaply.

All Hitler needed to do was introduce student loans and then abort them. Then his genocide would have been fine!

The credit slaves are standing up for their masters.

Why do you think the german public looked away? Why do you think the UK and the US took so long to join the antifascist war?

France & the UK declared war on Germany two days after Germany invaded Poland.

That is an absolutely astounding level of historical ignorance, right there.

And that’s when the genocide started is it?

You expected the 1930's UK to declare war on another sovereign country due to something that country was doing to their own subjects?

I don't think there isn't a single example of that in written history. You should ask for a pony while you are at it.

It’s not like they were doing nothing, they were supporting it. They still were benefiting from the nazi turbo-capitalism that was eating people alive up until that beast started to turn on them. Like the US is doing now with Israel and their genocide of Palestinians.

It’s not like the anti-semitic violence came as a suprise when we attacked Poland. It was clearly already there, so why was there nothing done to reign it in? No sanctions or anything they were very happily, keenly even doing business with Germany which was already stealing and oppressing and heavily militarizing for years prior.

You're either a liar or woefully ignorant where history is concerned.

Along with every other country. See my previous response RE: pony.

The Kitchener Camp has been largely forgotten today, but in 1939 this derelict army base on the Kent coast became the scene of an extraordinary rescue which saved 4,000 men from the Holocaust.
