Biden AGAIN Trying to “Forgive” Other People’s Debt with YOUR Money

Even after being shot down by the courts, Biden and the democrats just will not stop trying to do unconstitutional things. In this case, we’re talking about the student loan “forgiveness” program. They are putting forward five groups of people that initially qualify for the vote-buying giveaway program they are trying to institute. These are the categories Biden is assigning to people for “loan forgiveness:”

1. Loans repaid more than 25 years ago

• These were the adults in the room who lived up to their obligations. Leave them alone. 

2. Loans with balances greater than the original amount borrowed

3. Loans for career training programs that resulted in “unreasonable debt loads or provided insufficient earnings”

• These people CHOSE to get loans for degrees like “women’s studies,” 18th century lesbian poetry, and underwater basket weaving. Sorry, you should have chosen more wisely.  Now live like a pauper and repay your loan like the adults did.

4. Eligible for forgiveness under other repayment plans but have not applied for it

• There should be no such category under the FEDERAL government. This is vote buying.

5. Experiencing financial hardship that current student loan system does not currently adequately address

• See “vote buying” above.

There is no line of text in the Constitution that empowers the federal government to confiscate wealth from one individual and redistribute it to another for these purposes. KNOCK IT OFF.

The Culture Of The Smug White Liberal

While I think Ms. Johnson-Huston is blinded to her community’s culpability for their current situation, I must give her credit for waking up to the futile nature of continuing to blindly support a party and ideology that has given blacks nothing but empty promises for the last 50+ years.  She still seems to be under the illusion that the high rates of crime, murder, drug use, single-parent homes, unemployment, and incarceration within the black community are somehow SOMEONE ELSE’S fault.  Actually, the vast majority of their problems stem from the abandonment of personal responsibility.  Who you vote for is a personal choice.  Doing drugs is a personal choice.  Having sex is a personal choice if you’re a human being.  Committing crime is a personal choice.  Disrespecting your parents is a personal choice.  Disobeying an order from the police is a personal choice.  Burning down businesses that provide both goods and jobs is, you guessed it, a personal choice.

While it is heartening to see black liberals waking up to the fact that democrats have been playing them for chumps, it is also disheartening to see that many still can’t see that their personal choices are what have gotten them where they are today.

Emphasis/bolding added below is by me.

I have spent my life as a Democrat which probably isn’t that surprising considering that I am African-American. One of the things that always attracted me to the party were the ideals of equality, fighting for the little guy and our openness to differing opinions, but lately I have seen my party take a turn that makes me uncomfortable. Somewhere along the way we stopped fighting for the little guy and became the party of the smug, educated elites who look down on those with less education and deem them unable or unworthy of being able to make personal decisions for their own lives.

Over the last few years we have made incredible strides in diversity and inclusion, from the election twice of the nation’s first African-American President to the legalization of gay marriage, all things that I have loudly and happily cheered for and felt were a long time in coming. As an African-American professional from humble beginnings, I know firsthand the importance of giving everyone an equal opportunity to access the American Dream. I don’t take lightly the opportunities I have been given or the fact that many people, black and white, fought for and sometimes died for me to have these rights. I also have serious concerns about the lack of progress that I have seen for many African-Americans and I blame some of that lack of progress on ineffective liberal policies that are based upon wanting to help those in need, but in many instances end up causing more harm than good.
