  I’d add in evil to a point but you’re spot on. They’re truly brutal.
context: There's billionaires that really need the money. Stock buybacks aren't free. >
  
  Funny thing if youre someone with 150k in student debt you'll be saving as much from the delayed interest charge as you would from forgiveness. >
  
  As someone who has student loans with variable interest rates, these last couple years have been freaking rough. >
  
  I really feel for you all and it's getting worse. I went to college 88-92. I worked 30-35 hours a week and my mom had a second job. I graduated with $1,500 in debt. My mom still refuses to let me pay that back to her.
  My husband went to college a little later and finished his master's degree in 2003. We paid $750 a month of his salary and all of my salary to get those loans paid. It took 14 years, but we finally paid them off in 2017, when we were 47. Too old to have kids then, but we could stop eating ramen and skipping meals. 
  If we hadn't done all that, his payments were projected to be done when we were 67. It absolutely fucking sucks that this shit is still happening.
  In my opinion, the money loaned is already gone. Just forgive it all and start from scratch. I'd include that there can't be more than 1% interest on the loans, repayment should be reasonably dependent on your salary, and whatever you pay off in 10 years, you're done. 
  We can't keep going with college graduates having debt equal to a fucking house. Fuck every republican who isn't helping to solve this problem and fuck every person who has the "I paid it off, so should you" attitude. You're not helping and you're not seeing the bigger, long-term picture.
  Also, I'll be 53 this year. Y'all can also stay off my lawn. ;) >
  
  F*** the Republicans in general. Both parties suck in different ways but the GOP is hands down the worst. >
  
  I say this all the time. Democrats aren't amazing, but Republicans are fucking horrible monsters -- not evil, but they could not care less who gets hurt by their policies to help the rich.
