There's a whole trend among reactionary centrists and reporters to claim "but PPP is different, student loans weren't meant to be forgiven." Except they were. Congress gave the relevant agency broad powers to modify student loans, just the same as PPP. www.federalregister.gov/d/2023-13112...

But if people with degrees are pulled into the working classes they will never consider MAGA. There is method to this. They want to make higher education rare.

How is having a highly educated work force NOT a public good that is in the interest of the State to subsidize? The other Western Nations do this, why shouldn't the US? What is the argument against this?

The people talking about the Supreme Court ruling annoy me, no Dems took the PPP law to a partisan court that just randomly makes stuff up.

It’s the prosperity gospel dictating who the government deems worthy. Every government assistance program works on the idea that the less money you have, the less trustworthy you are. No one says, “Millionaires will just buy drugs with their tax breaks.”
