U.S. President Joe Biden said on Wednesday his administration had approved $4.8 billion in student debt cancellation for 80,300 people.

“This brings the total debt cancellation my administration has approved to $132 billion for over 3.6 million Americans through various actions,” Biden said in a statement.

    Oh your “they are the same shit” is so annoying. You both come off as imbeciles. whatever, the options are not great, but come on you got an elderly lukewarm President or an elderly moron president.

    One of which actively tried to dismantle our democracy, and their party has blocked almost every initiative they could that help the American people.

    Billionaires are eating our world alive and climate change is going to cause mass migration.

    You have no sense of civic duty, if we don’t help our neighbors then how the hell are we united as country?

        It’s closer to “when your options are the genocide far away and a genocide here, or a genocide far away”

        Not voting doesn’t change a thing. The genocide far away will happen no matter what so the moral thing to do is to vote for the option that will minimize the amount of genocide being done. In the meantime the only thing you can do about the genocide far away is to call your congress and write to your local representative. It feels like almost nothing, but frankly there is almost nothing we can do. We can only minimize the total harm done by voting for Democrats instead of just letting Republicans run wild both domestically and abroad.

          Your opening Salvo doesn’t make sense.

          The prompt is what you vote for. When you don’t, it’s not for any of it.

          Democrats have a history of doing this when the DNC gets all Kissinger.

          Republicans do either way.

          That’s the history.

        Are you familiar with two wrongs don’t make a right?

        Or how about the lesser of two evils? Do you think the republicans would have handled this better somehow?

        You are delusional if you believe that

        Like I said you’re clearly a reactionary moron. Good luck with that, I’m sure you’re a big brave person fighting the good fight.
