So in the war on the left to give people more free crap, Kamala Harris is looking like a moderate next to commie extremists like Big Chief Liz Warren and Bernie Sanders.
Yesterday I announced that, as president, I’ll establish a student loan debt forgiveness program for Pell Grant recipients who start a business that operates for three years in disadvantaged communities. https://t.co/ldwuC9RiIE

I’m not in support of Harris, God no, and I’m not in support of this proposal. However, I do like that she’s trying to be more reasonable than simply handing out money to everyone.
Black Twitter, on the other hand, is not having any of that nonsense:
student loan collectors sending pell grant recipients off to drown in more debt so that kamala harris will maybe pay off those original loans in five years pic.twitter.com/77yehnMf34

As a caveat, I don’t know if all of these are from black twitter, I just know many of them are. Let’s go!

How is it someone with an education like yours can be that stupid?… Or maybe it is just corruption… pic.twitter.com/OSjbvkOExz

This has to be a parody right?
Loan Debt forgiveness
– for Pell Grant recipients
– who start a business
– that operates for three years
– in disadvantaged communitiesFuck this plan and fuck you. Cancel all student debt.

What about those of us who don’t want to start a business? Should we just fuck off? How about we just abolish student loan debt altogether?

This dude ain’t black, but this is hilarious:
What do we want?
— Ed Zitron (@edzitron) July 28, 2019
STUDENT LOAN FORGIVENESS FOR PELL GRANT RECIPIENTS
When do we want it?
AFTER OPERATING A BUSINESS FOR THREE YEARS IN DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES https://t.co/NigSLakjUW
More angst:
Just trying to understand who these people are who were granted pell grants but also have the capital to start a business in a disadvantaged area and can ensure it is successful for at least three years

She’s completely ignoring that you can easily get a business loan if you have a college degree.
https://twitter.com/CrownVictoria22/status/1155502362091544578And she is citing all stats for black businesses, not those by owners with degrees. Convenient.
I work at an incubator in a university that is deeply committed to innovation in a city that has what feels like an incubator in every corner, and this is so absurd... a LOT of new businesses fail, and they take a lot of money and effort regardless of success. Who does this help? https://t.co/pFvaQa7k33

We can’t have standards when it comes to loan forgiveness, how dare you, Kamala?!?!? This is pure white supremacy! Worse than Trump’s tweets!!!
I can’t help but laugh. The Democrats did this to themselves. They trained their voters to not give a damn about any policy unless it directly provides them with free crap. Well here you are. Enjoy!!
Also, there’s a little secret about student loan debt no one talks about. A HUGE part of the problem is small loans with people that didn’t finish college. They owe $10k to $15k and dropped out after one or two years. The vast majority of the ones who owe above $100k usually have PhDs and they’ll be fine after a few years. Those big ticket loans just get the headlines. So why should responsible people be on the hook for those who irresponsibly took out a loan and didn’t finish college?
