President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Yale Law grad J.D. Vance...

 

I’m sure there’s an excellent reason why someone with $100,000 in loans was in journalism but…why?

 

The rest of Leviticus is enlightening on notions of debt and forgiveness and brotherhood.

35 “If your brother becomes poor and cannot maintain himself with you, you shall support him as though he were a stranger and a sojourner, and he shall live with you. 36 Take no interest from him or profit, but fear your God, that your brother may live beside you. 37 You shall not lend him your money at interest, nor give him your food for profit. 38 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.

As to student loans, exactly how financially savvy is the average 18-20 year old? They've been told,(and outright pressured) that getting a good college degree is how you make a good living. They do whatever they can to get that done, and then at some point realize that they've dug a helluva financial hole for themselves.

Hell, when my kid was a freshman, he signed up for a credit card to get a cool t-shirt. Note that at the time he got it, he did not have a job and was coming off of a TBI. (Thanks, Discover card) Next thing you know there are a few dates, trips to the bar or restaurant, impulse purchases, and he's carrying a balance he can't hack. College kids don't make great decisions, and it isn't exactly revolutionary to say so.

 

Just like BTO had TCB, MAGA has HRC

 

I think the Mashantucket’s and Pequots wanted a casino in East Windsor, to “stop” people from going to Springfield. It was a dumb idea from the start and was never built. I’m
Not sure where the idea fell apart. That’s probably the Zinke angle.

 

Hope this ends up putting Project Veritas out of business and James O’Keefe in prison.
