    Sure. That seems like the bare minimum.

    Better still, get rid of all student debt - and for-profit education too

    Maybe use the #CancelStudentDebt hashtag

    That's been used for years to demand loan cancellation. Now that you''ve done it for 1M people, you should take credit

  3. Mine are paid off. I'd rather others in the 99%% didn't have to.

    Now let's do #Homelessness
    How many #Billionaires need to find a little compassion to fix that 💩?

    Or, we could stop relying on wealthy folk's personal piety & just #TaxTheRich

    Great, but we both know educating needed #HealthCareWorkers shouldn't depend on the kindness of #Billionaires

    I appreciate the good work some rich ppl choose to do, if only to get #Tax breaks

    I just really want a whole different way of funding education

    Single motherhood is the top predictor of poverty in the US as well

    If the #GOP honestly wanted to keep women from choosing #Abortion they'd offer some demand-side solutions

    Seems to me that #Democrats don't seem concerned about those solutions either... #Fundraising off the #Fascist threat is probably working pretty well for them

    Do I want #Biden to #CancelStudentDebt ? Sure, but we haven't given him two houses of Congress and sixty reliable Senators.

    But he didn't give up. And so far, he's cancelled $127B in debt for over 3m people. And he would have helped 40m, if the SCOTUS didn't block him.

    THAT is real action, helping real people.

    A very important example to measure the two political parties.

    Topic: #CancelStudentDebt

    Dems: cancelled debt of 3.6m people and tried to cancel up to $20k for 40m (but the #GOP -packed SCOTUS stopped them). Shut down sham schools. Impact on deficit negligible as it's largely uncollectable.

    Reps: cancelled no debt, instead made loan terms worse. Encouraged useless, for-profit diploma mills. The alleged "income" from this uncollected debt was lost on a tax cut for the rich.

  10. I play the long game! I have always been zeroing in on the goal for #PSLF.

    PSLF forgiveness should work in stages like #PerkinsLoans and that is my only complaint since they got rid of the corrupt and inept #FedLoanServicing #MyFedLoan and their shady deceitful stall tactics.

    Oh, I still wouldn’t mind… #CancelStudentDebt
    #CancelStudentLoans
    #StudentLoanJustice
    for everyone else even if I was stuck at underpaid federal, state and non-profit jobs for over 20 years.

  11. crooksandliars.com/2023/10/loo #CancelStudentDebt #StudentLoan Look What Student Debt Activists Did At This HBCU

    Debt Activists Bought $10M in Student Debt for $125,000 — and Canceled It All!!!

    . “This nearly $10M of student debt cancellation will put thousands of Black folks in a better position to be able to save for retirement, purchase a home or start a small business.”
