The Second Stimulus Discussion Thread

[Peter Parker]

Yea. What’s that strawman have to do with student loan forgiveness?

You're either A upset that you went to college and payed off your loans B. Upset that you didnt go to collge because you didnt wanna take out loans or C. Upset that you didnt go to college at all regardless of loans and the only thing you had to gloat about is your career with your lack of debt

All of those are fine and I can see why you'd be a little peeved but your whole argument really falls on the basis of "THATS NOT FAIR " Its childish. The problem with a lot of you nikkas is your parents never sat you down and told you the only thing fair is a catch after a kickoff. Capitalism isn't fair and your tax dollars go to a lot of things that you wouldn't want to pay for but that's the system we have, you're just being a salt lord about it.

If couples/singles make 150k/75k and still have their job, they don't need a fukkin $600 check.



Give that shyt to the unemployed and employed with cut hours.

You really dont know what people need for one. Some people making that kind of money might be chipping in to take care of family members that have been impacted. And two, there is no efficient way for the government to figure out who is employed with cut hours and deliver a stimulus in a timely fashion.

Both of yall make good points.

On one hand, they probably should just take the $600 they were going to give to everyone, and give it to the unemployed so they can get more money as they really need it.

But I know I "loaned" (the money is gone forever probably ) out atleast $1,500.00 to my relatives. Im not stressing over a stimulus but, I'd take it too

So what I said still directly applies to you? everything I just said all falls under "I had to work harder and its not fair ", all you did was list another example of it

Pay your student loans like a responsible adult

My student loans are paid aside from a very insignificant amount, I just don't agree with the thought process of "its not fair" in response to other people being relieved from predatory debt.

When did I say it wasn't fair, I just called their practices predatory, that means something entirely different than fair/not fair. Now you're the one on some strawman shyt

Don’t sign the dotted line saying you agree to their terms. If you sign it, you pay it back like any responsible adult

Judging from this thread, I honestly didn't realize that so many people were struggling due to COVID. Perhaps this is a sign that we need UBI? Who knows.

Wait.. so the loans you took out were minimal AND optional? (Since you were on a ride?)

My thoughts exactly. I pay 3200 for rent, that's not including utilities and internet. Maybe they live in the Midwest or south east?

We cant even get $600 stimulus checks out to the people. They treating Bernie like a peasant, and he and Andrew Yang are the ones that were pushing for UBI.
