    Cool. I agree about the fact college educated people make more. No one is going to refute that fact and neither did I if you read anything I wrote. I wrote about situations THAT ARE VERY REAL.

    Everything I wrote I stand by. Because compassion is cool to have.

    It's weird to have to defend that I have common sense on more than just stats and having compassion.

    You can both understand the stats and have compassion. It's okay, you can do it. It's wonderful over here.

    What company did she get a PPP loan for? Because individuals can't get PPP loans. She would have had to have a payroll.

    And to have it forgiven, that means she had used it for the intended purpose and submitted documentation proving so.

    edit: I guess sole proprietorships can get PPP loans? Who knew. In any case, anyone know the entitiy used to secure this PPP loan?

    She got a loan and it was forgiven. What she used as an excuse I don’t know. Or care. It’s just so fucking hypocritical

    It really wasn't. It was a government program to ensure her company didn't fire her entire staff during the pandemic. PPP Loans were never meant to be paid back, it was free money provided you fill out the forms correctly and used the money to pay your employees. Everyone knew that.

    Student Loan Borrowers had their payments completely frozen during the pandemic up to the current day. They got $10k of loans cancelled, provided they meet certain income limits ($125k/$250k)

    What's the hypocrisy? They aren't even close to being the same thing.

    You said it yourself, it was free money. She got a handout and is complaining when others are getting one.

    She gladly took money from the govt.
    she used it on something
    She didn’t have to take the money
    She isn’t paying it back.
    She’s a piece of shit.

    Sallie Mae isn't the government. Student loans aren't a pandemic related program aimed at saving the US Economy.

    No, that's not how it works. The economy grows out of it.

    Ok. It was the government and now it isn’t. And Sallie Mae can fuck the right off. Getting mad about people getting money removed from their debt is just dumb. And yes I think there is a clear parallel between the politicians getting their loans closed out and this. It’s actually far worse of a look for Marj and gang.

    We won't know how much it costs until people start applying.

    And they are deflecting on how it's gonna be funded.

    I'm hearing this may go to the Supreme Court after the midterms and possibly be cancelled later.

    here's the thing:

    The government helped both the people on PPP and us.

    So the PPP people can't be mad we got the same treatment they did. And what's even more sick, is the PPP people got MORE upset that we got a bailout and we are taking WAY less of a handout.

    THAT is where the issue is. And THAT can't be refuted, because it's fact based on ALL the talk.

    That discussion is over.
