I regret to inform everyone that the point Rich Lowry was making in that convo with David Corn is the same argument that the great George Will is also currently making: Biden just as bad as Trump because...student loan forgiveness. Just makes me sad.

George Will, IMHO, has been a hack for decades (sorry Charlie)

I never understood why the people who got all cranked up over student loan forgiveness didn't have a similar objection to the PPP or ERC money that was given to businesses.

(Full disclosure: Before I sold my business we took both PPP and ERC payments.)

I think those cranked up people would use the excuse that when Biden did a handout it was by executive order, so...bad. When Trump did it was through congress, so...good. Which I don't completely disagree with, but, still, a handout's a handout. If you're mad about one you should be mad about them all.

I can't fathom it either. It's not like MAGA's kids aren't also suffering from student loan debt. These are the same folks mad cuz young people aren't having babies or buying houses. but when someone point out that student loan debt is a barrier...that's what a lie the left tells you? To bad so sad you buddy, should have thought about that before you went to that fancy elite college (as if you can't have student loans from community or vocational schools??)

I suppose only rich people or "job creators" deserve help. Poor people should have picked rich parents obviously! I hope the future unborn is taking note and pulling credit reports of potential parents. /s
