You'll never hear me argue that loans aren't a racket. And you'll never hear me argue that a moral society saddles its young people with unpayable debts. I'm only arguing that this policy, with these qualifications, made in this way looks a whole lot like Biden trying to appease and buy votes than it does like the good governance that he promised us during the election.
And I have no argument with that. This policy, with these qualifications, made in this way, IS Biden appeasing and buying votes. MY point? Is that the democratic party is in deep, unsustainable, unconstrained political debt to its base and that, considering the behavior of their counterparts, fuckin' paying down their tab is far and away the best possible move they can make. These votes aren't being "bought." They're fucking OWED. They've been owed since NAFTA.
