braillediver42% of Americans want Trump to forgive their student loan debt
Is this debt different, is it special because it's a "Student Loan".
Or is it just money owed to the government?
You borrowed money= Pay It Back.
I've got credit card debt I'd like someone else to pay? Why is this any different?

FenrisI want the bank to forgive my mortgage.
I want Visa to forgive my credit card debt.
I want the IRS to forgive my taxes for the next 20 years.
I want the wife to forgive me for whatever the frack she thinks I did wrong this week.
Oh, and I want a unicorn pony that farts rainbows and gum drops.

Well, since we have neither a car loan, house loan, student loan (actually any debt) I must object!
As far as the snowflakes getting their student loans forgiven . . . Screw them. Don't give a shit that there are not many openings for those who studied idiotic shit, run by some idiot "professor".
We had exactly one of those at the University of MD, When I was there back in 1972-77, Class was called, "psychology of death". Guaranteed "A" according to some buddies of mine. Figured since I was paying tuition, books, etc I should be getting something worth while out of it.

Hey, they're is the submissive position of asking for a favor. Maybe they'll agree to identifying characteristics and the method of checking. Otherwise, no, pay up.

nhtagmemberI wonder which 42% of the population that would be?
$40k in student loans - is that for your BA in Women's Studies?
or $40k for your first two years in Med School?

springnrFirst kind sirs an misses, before we talk about foisting your responsibilities off on other folks, return to the college or university, fountain of knowledge, that trained you to think this is a reasonable course of action ... and request, no demand a refund or at least a significant reduction of your financial obligation.
Let us know how that goes, it should provide a good starting point.

SIG4EVASure... So I guess that means those of us who paid their student loans off responsible should be getting a reimbursement check as well? Shitheads.

A reimbursement check with interest that equals the stock market performance for the 30 years that have elapsed since I paid my student loans off.

Whoa there fella. That's a pretty broad assumption. I think more than half of gov't jobs could be done away with and there'd be no negative impact on the community or economy.
As for debt forgiveness, I'm headed down to the Porsche dealer tonight and getting a modest 911 4S. Then in 30 days when the first payment is due, I'll ask the gov't to pitch in. You know, to stimulate the economy!

jhe888Who wouldn't want their student loan debt paid off?
That doesn't make it fair or the right policy.

When was the last time you dealt with a government worker and said "That guy was excellent and is the best in his field"?

It seems more likely that this would just be passing the debt on to someone else, namely the tax payer.
just GREAT!!!! We should write off the NATIONAL debt too.....what a BONUS economic stimulation that would be!!!!!!

Well.... we kind of are.
