@DoctorSarcasm@Vivivachi@CBRI18@NY1@AOC@errollouis@InsideCityHall Don’t care of you’re sorry , sad , or just obtuse. It’s a predatory lending system rife with decades of illegal practices. It’s irresponsible lending devoid consumer protections. It’s economically detrimental. It’s not getting paid down & that’s a fact #CancelStudentDebt
If Wall Street can be bailed out, student loans can be forgiven.

Mr. President, myself, @SenSchumer, @AyannaPressley, @ewarren, @WhipClyburn, and 43+ million Americans/borrowers think this is the right thing to do.
Let's get it done.
Stop stealing dollars of my labor for purposes that don't benefit average working Americans. #CancelStudentDebt. Stop stealing my income and giving my tax dollars to bail out billionaire failing corporations and banks. My tax money paid my federal student loans. @POTUS
Those with less than anyone end up paying MORE than everyone. Women and Minorities had less, borrow more, pay more, earn less and have less to pass on to future generations. Why? Because The federal government made itself a discriminatory lender. @CANCELSTUDENTDEBT @POTUS@FSACOO
@JMD_Angelo Also, maybe youth wouldn't feel like life ends at 12th grade when they think college will not be affordable.
Maybe they will shoot for stars instead of shooting heroin. @POTUS
@GM60846934 @FlagstaffJon @ninaturner Canceling student debt does not have to be included in a budget, there is no cost, the gov. just doesn't collect on it.
The Gov can't include 1.7T in a budget to pay itself back.
Don't consider it a loss either, money for education serves society.
@Ojeda4America I freaking love Will Smith, but can't be okay with or excuse his actions. Hugging Jada would have been the best response & a greater show of love for her. What Rock said, may have been reference to Jada being tough. He should have run the joke by them first.
Hope for amends
We probably shouldn't sweat about #CancelStudentDebt not being in the budget.
As we all know, it won't cost anything to cancel the debt so it doesn't need to be in the budget.
@POTUS
@WilliamBradyCoS@Progress4TheWin@BernieSanders I taught financial literacy as well and can't believe you would rather blame the borrower than the corrupt system of high fees, capitalized interest & neg amortization that traps us in lifelong debt. #cancelstudentdebt FOR ALL!
@KimTownsel Intent of legislators in 1965 seems to be the argument. Pelosi & her "postpone or delay", word changes don't cut it.
The writing is not ambiguous & can't be changed to suit her liking or anyone else's.
Intent of law is as it's written, they did a pretty good job making it clear!
@SenWarren@POTUS And Cancel all of it. Those of us who did get diplomas also had life circumstances, curve balls that resulted in longer time/ more semesters or need for deferments that increased size of loans & therefore larger payments. #CancelStudentDebt
Shame on @AFPhq for shilling for the predatory student loan swamp while millions are stuck in a lifetime of negatively amortized loans that are designed never to be repaid!!! Shame!!! #CancelStudentDebt
