SC will kill Biden's student loan forgiveness program.

[Jakes Progress]

Republicans are keeping this quiet until after elections, but they are counting on the trump court to kill the program.

Democrats need to make this part of their campaigns. And those who celebrated the end of their debt should brace themselves for disappointment.

I've read about alternative plans that Biden is considering, but I worry anyway.

1. Republicans always go for things injurious to people. They are sadists and bullies!!! n/t

[Initech]

2. Everything Trump touches dies!

[RKP5637]

9. Except himself!!! n/t

3. Biden should just do it anyway ...

What’s Congress going to do? Impeach him? It’s not like they are going to be able to get the money back if he does it.

[MichMan]

10. What do you mean by not being able to get the money back?

It would just go back to where people still owed the money same as before

[VMA131Marine]

13. That's in any way practical or politically wise.

[JCMach1]

4. Just keep payments on hold permanently...

[Mr.Bill]

8. That would be better than nothing,

but it would still show as debt on your credit report.

[Jakes Progress]

12. And a republican government would just call the loans.

They would want the banks to charge interest for all the time the debt was held.

Those who owe should know about the republican's plans before the election.

5. Who has standing to bring a suit? Who can prove they were harmed?

Being butt-hurt doesn’t count.

[Claustrum]

6. When you are talking about a non-political judicial system, you would be right.

But with Roe and the recent TFG "special master" rulings, it's clear that republicans (both on and off the court) will invent some non-sensical reasons to get ruling that they want.

[Jakes Progress]

11. This.

And tfg's judges will always rubber stamp their claims.

[Sky Jewels]

7. We need to expand the SCOTUS the instant the new Democratic Senators are sworn in in January.

Yes, I am confident we'll make gains in the Senate, and the House, as well.

14. The fucking Supreme Court is NOT a super-duper, special additional legislative body

It's time for President Biden to say; "they've made their ruling, let them enforce it".

[Jakes Progress]

15. Soooo. . . Democrats just refuse to abide by SC rulings?

I know. Why don't we just write a new constitution where we get to do what we want and ignore precedent? I think there is already a party that wants to do that. Biden said he thought that was a bad thing.

The constitution could use some updating, but until there is a constitutional convention (or armed coup) we are stuck with the one we have. There are many ways to ameliorate the problem - most of them involving voting - but becoming just like the other guys isn't a good one.
