Wow you guys will just jump through flaming hoops like trained circus bears to defend your overlords.

You say the two foregivnesses are nothing yet I beg to differ.

A business person takes risk. Its hard to predict when circumstances will disrupt business. Pandemic happens. Rather than suffering circumstances, they get a bailout.

A student takes risk to invest time/money into pursuing education. Its hard to predict the outcome sometimes. Cant find a decent paying job and gets drowned by debt.

You can attach whatever amendments you want to these situations. But it basically adds up to you saying the business operator has more entitlement to receive assistance than the meek college grad. In my mind the two are not so different. That's why we call you guys bootlickers.

Bottom line is, theres a student debt crisis in this nation. If the government can offer bailouts to everyone else, theres not reason some measure of bailout cant be offered to this stratum of society. For once they're actually doing something to help the average young person.

There are no hoops. Your arguments are illogical and based on spurious comparisons, the biggest - but not only - one being that government prevented businesses from operating normally even if they wished to. That alone would have justified the program.

Tell me where in the terms of a student is a "decent paying job" guaranteed? In addition, how many of these loans where the student has legitimate difficulty paying back were for majors that a little research would have identified as having limited job prospects and/or low average salaries? That type of information is hardly unavailable.

You can claim that my points come down to whatever...but logic does not support your conclusion on that. And under normal business condition, neither merits much entitlement to a bailout, though there might be a slightly stronger argument for the business since that could impact the jobs of employees. But that would still be a weak argument in a free market capitalistic system.

You call people "bootlickers" because you can't make a reasoned argument and have to resort to playground insults. :) Bottom line is, there is a crisis of making responsible financial decisions. And this bailout only worsens that by encouraging more irresponsible behavior not to mention prompting further growth in college fees and tuition. Fortunately, this appears to be legally dubious and may not withstanding the nearly certain court challenge. That would be the best outcome since the list of reasons why this move is a bad idea on many front is long.

Naw my argument is perfectly reasonable. I call you a bootlicker because you chose to remain ignorant to the reason .

[u/[deleted] → u/misterforsa]

Keep telling yourself that. I’m sure your subs will tell you just that. Ironic that you then call others “ignorant” with the routine historically ignorant taunt after your disconnected comparison. But…sadly not surprising.

Bootlicker is as bootlicker does. Sadly.... it's not surprising
