He’s going to do that regardless since it’s the DNC’s official stance to keep AIPAC money flowing

It's going to be great that warren stans are going to use this to argue that Warren can get things done, ignoring that the only reason this is taking place is because Bernie is still in the race, and that making it into the platform isn't actually getting things done.

I don’t think you should have to declare bankruptcy for that, considering what it would likely do to your credit.

Great general-election proposition that has a chance of going through even if the Senate Dems get to 50. Also, a great way to consolidate Sanders' base & hopefully end the Never Biden movement.

There are going to be armies of old people walking to polling locations to sacrifice themselves in order to nominate Biden. They know the risks, but there are some things in this world worth dying for. When they close their eyes, they can imagine Biden stumbling through the halls of the White House, chasing the specter of Corn Pop that only he sees. As long as they can ensure that their children and grandchildren can continue to live in a world where this vision becomes reality, they can die in peace.

Yeah, I am sure that the "senator from MBNA" and the former candidate who literally never ever mentioned her bankruptcy bill in debates or interviews are not only sincere, but completely dedicated to passing this bill. This is not at all a plan by a consultant who thinks this will improve Biden's standing with the young.

Will you stop going crazy in there?
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that "now you can declare bankruptcy to get out of your student loans!" is going to rally a ton of voters against Biden. gently caress, my student loans are paid off and that still feels like a huge middle finger pointed in my direction.

edit- It's funny, because a lot of people aren't going to get that making student loan debt non-dischargeable was bad, but making it dischargable again is also bad if that's your solution to the current crisis.

If you paid off your student loans, you didn't need to declare bankruptcy. Bankruptcy and having poo poo credit also really loving sucks. If you feel like this is a big middle finger pointed in your direction you're kind of an rear end in a top hat ino.

I went with the smart option. I became mentally ill and eventually unemployable. After finally clawing my way onto disability over a few years, I only had to wait five years for my student debt to get forgiven. IT’S THAT EASY FOLKS!

Bidens campaign hasn't proven they will be able to triangulate anything and I have no idea why so many posters suddenly assume they will now. It's riding purely on media hype, obama nostalgia, and phone calls to eliminate is competition. That's it, but the media is probably his biggest ally and he is one bad gaff away from torpedoing his campaign on live TV.

Voted today and stopped to talk to the Biden supporter set up holding a sign in front of the polling location to ask what it was about Biden that inspired his support. He told me that he believed the only hope in America to get things done is to earn the respect of Republicans with a honorable moderate like Joe. He felt Joe would make a lot of friends and inspire republicans to work with him by earning their respect though his convictions and strength of character. The country would be healed and we'd see an end to the partisan divide that's giving him conflict with his next door neighbor.

I might be in the wrong dimension.

Just have everyone declare school loan based bankruptcy and see what happens when the banks lose an entire generation worth of customers.

Moralists don't really *have* beliefs. Sometimes they stumble on one, like on a child's toy left on the carpet. The toy must be put away immediately. And the child reprimanded.

Seriously "oh forgiving the debt would be too disruptive, what if instead we just asked 40 million people to all declare bankruptcy at the same time"

and then of course everyone going forward will just have seven years of bad credit baked into their education plans, since you know they won't actually do anything substantial to address rising education costs

I mean the 1.5 trillion is basically fake money though, and is not being injected into the "market" really. It's basically a short 1-3 month loan to help banks purchase repos from each other. It wont actually cost any taxpayer money and it will have no impact on inflation. It's not at all comparable to the government coming up with 1.5 trillion to spend on student loans or healthcare.
