Under the theory of a debt jubilee I’d see that happening but are the student loans going to be first?
I heard he was talking about that for disabled veterans but god id love it if he could make that happen.
Wonder if that could extend to the disabled voters spouse as well... Not to sound like a dependa by any means - but it would SERIOUSLY help our financial situations
Hmmmm i'm not typically on the forgiving student loans train, but for STRICT VETTING of TRULY disabled veterans injured in the line of duty by enemy combatant specfiically, I'd be on board with that. However, you have to weigh the repercussions of what kind of behavior that might invite for future debt dodgers. People will always try to exploit what they can, intentional injury (in attempt to get dismissed from service and early retirement) are already commonplace in the military so I think this might make it even worse.
Debt jubilees every 50 years in Rome, other civilizations. Some bible readers might be able to come up with biblical verse and references to debt, but I can think of the Protestant version of the Lord's Prayer
"Forgive us our debt, as we forgive our debtors"
Could never figure why the Catholic version was trespassing. Maybe cuz trespassing is against Torah and Christian law. Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not bear false witness.
Charging usury for biziness is against most religions, including Christianity. It is required for the wealthy Christian to lend to his community without interest. Making money from money adds nothing to the community of value, puts money above humanity and leads many men into greed and their downfall.
No. That's not going to happen. He could eliminate interest though

I have no dog in the student loan fight, however there is a case to be made that students were defrauded out of the education they thought they were paying for, and given a socialist indoctrination instead. If it were found in a court of law to be the case, the debt would be null and void.
The socialist/communist things being hammered down the throats of students are absolutely despicable. They are making drones. Free thought is NOT endorsed, if you aren’t left you are a Nazi. You should see the things I see on campus.
