  • Are you talking about the student loans he wrote off for a small subset of people who needed it?

    I’m happy for those who got it, but that’s hardly enough progress on this issue for me to give our government praise for it. Nearly all of us in the working class were still better off four years ago than we are now. Biden jacked up interest rates to address “inflation,” which increased my mortgage by around $700 a month. That’s more than what I pay in student loans, and that’s just one example.

    Things seems to just get worse slower when dems are in office, not better. IAnd I’m entirely fed up with it.






  • I have a handful of tankie capitalism and “democracy” loving, American “traditional” leaning and religious Republican coworkers who absolutely still believe that he’s a genius. They feel that way about other billionaires too.

    Edit: TIL that “tankie” doesn’t mean “capitalism and ‘democracy’ loving, American ‘traditional’ leaning and religious Republicans.” I guess the shorthand for that is just “stereotypical conservative.”
