We’ve gone past the “stripping the copper” phase of capitalism and are now at the “tearing apart the couch looking for loose change” phase
So that’s why he picked Vance
Have student loans
suppress wages
downsize so no one gets hired
put tax burden more and more on the poor

They don’t want to be paid back, they want slaves.
The social control angle is the only one that really makes sense at this point.
Don’t forget:
gut the safety net programs that were already barely functional
Can’t have my wages garnished when I’m unemployed and have no wages
They have forever. Imagine trying to wait it out somehow and having your student loans restart at 60. They’ll just garnish your social security if it’s still there.
Just a matter of time till they bring back Debtors Prison.
Except it’ll be working for no pay in a Tesla lithium mine.
Pf, that would be slavery and wars were fought over that! We already have a perfectly good system in place that removes all human rights plus they get paid pennies on the dollar. Pure win!
This was a long time coming. I remember Kirsten Gillibrand or someone like that cosponsored a bill in Congress to do this a few years ago.
Americans education needs are serious overhaul from pre-k to university to better serve students, teachers, and America’s suppose “continued prosperity”. this is the exact opposite of overhaul needed. We want a “American century” and salting the Earth in so many ways
We want a “American century”
^of humilliation^
facts!
Chuds think everyone who took out a student loan is a millionaire
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Any predictions or thoughts from US comrades on how long usaians will roll over and play nice with all that is happening?
You’d be surprised how long we will put up with it
The Social Darwinism is Starship Troopers-level deep, just as internalized as it is externalized.
I’m not sure the limit actually exists tbh
Forever?
obv it shouldn’t be this way but when I signed up I understood that was the deal if I didn’t pay so I don’t see why it’s “unconscionable”
I was also a stupid teenager told that this was my only way to avoid flipping burgers for the rest of my life, so I signed up for student loans.
Then in 2010 Obama overhauled the system to cut out the shitty private industry side of things, but gave no relief to people like me already locked into that system. Made it real fun when Biden teased loan forgiveness and I found out I wouldn’t even be eligible.
But I’ve been paying my loans. I did AmeriCorps so I could afford to do so. I reckon I’ve paid more than the entire cost of my schooling by now, but that doesn’t matter because interest go brrrrrr.
The whole student loan system is unconscionable.
Because the entire student loan system was a generational scam sold to 17 and 18 year olds and the loans should be entirely forgiven
