Once again I’m happy to inform you that yes, it’s Ronald Reagan’s fault. Damn his evil soul.
In pants shitting fear of “Creating an Educated Proletariat” Reagan took our system of basically free college and turned it into this mess we have now.
(P.S.: If you piss on Ronald Reagan’s grave in California and are caught by police its a misdemeanor charge carrying a $1000 fine. I don’t know about you but I can budget for this particular bucket list item)
Yup, my parents paid for tuition, books, leisure, food, and board working a summer job.
I had to use the GI Bill, a part time job in fall, winter, and spring, full time job in the summer, doing almost no leisure, money I saved up while in the military, and money my grandparents gave me
For the record, I already acknowledged what he did as president in a response to another reply. Biden was quite a bit better as president than I thought he would be (for good historical reasons) and I give him full credit for that.
That would be relevant if Biden were currently president, and it would have been somewhat less relevant had Biden even been the Democratic nominee for president in 2024.
But Biden wasn’t even on the ballot. It’s almost completely irrelevant.
When people talk like this, it just reminds me of how they talked about Hillary for Trump’s entire first term.
It just gives off the air of bad faith. We’re talking about things that are happening right now and are relevant to millions of people. Former politicians can’t be anything except a diversion.
My point was that the relevance of Reagan and Biden go hand in hand. If one is relevant then they both are. We either examine the past and learn from it, or we continue to repeat the mistakes.
And Reagan adopted his policies from the owner class think tanks. They worked for decades to create the conditions and people needed to realize what transpired under Reagan. 🥲

Joe Biden was the Senator most responsible for making those loans undismissible. There is plenty of blame to go around.
And that was the last thing he ever did regarding student loans. 40 years ago. Nothing since. The end. 🙄

LOL, is Reagan currently President? Read what I replied to before telling me if my comment is relevant.
“Yeah that makes sense, he was the 2nd worst Republican.”
“Why are you bringing up someone who’s no longer president? Why do you hate the guy who didn’t try hard enough to fix his mistakes?”
Weird how calling someone out from a while for their actions works, but not calling someone out for their actions.

Exactly! Both are relevant to the topic.
Do they do group rates?

I mean if I was a millionaire YouTuber who farms outrage, based somewhere other than the US, I know what I’d spend a hundred thousand on…
As it stands, I’m not American and don’t live in the US, so I can’t really partake in the fun. I hope some people do, though.
