Payments for federal student loans have been on hold for more than three years. Now that Covid is in the rear-view mirror, it’s obviously time for these payments to resume. Yet liberal journalists and Democrat politicians want you to believe that’s akin to "forcing" people into “living on the brink.”
If asking people to repay what they owe constitutes a “terrifying” situation, then heaven help us. In fact, why stop at student loans? Aren’t other types of loan payments equally as terrifying? Why not offload car payments, mortgages, and credit card debt to other people as well?
(There’s obviously no rational answer to those questions, which just proves how illogical this whole student loan “forgiveness” effort really is.)
