    Has he actually explained a plan to even “cut our taxes” because if I recall every tax proposal that’s come up raises the taxes on people living paycheck to paycheck.

      gotta pay for the tax cuts for the wealthy some how–it all can’t come from cuts to essential social services, or by increasing the national debt, ya know.

    Republicans and Trump Admin Will Garnish Struggling Borrowers’ Wages as Student Loan Payments Resume

    The Trump administration on Monday announced that it will resume involuntary collection measures against defaulted federal student loan recipients, including garnishing wages, tax refunds, and Social Security benefits and “other actions to help borrowers get back into repayment,” as the U.S. Department of Education euphemistically said.

    “Resuming collections protects taxpayers from shouldering the cost of federal student loans that borrowers willingly undertook to finance their postsecondary education,” DOE said in a statement notifying the public that collections will resume May 5. “This initiative will be paired with a comprehensive communications and outreach campaign to ensure borrowers understand how to return to repayment or get out of default.”

      Taxpayers wouldn’t have to shoulder that debt if it were simply canceled.

      I know republicans would never dare make it easier on students to learn, but, this argument is bs.

      three missed meals

        This is America. This can mean 4000 calorie meals at the extreme end. So we require fewer meals to miss to reach the mean calorie count of most other countries which equal 9 meals.

      This is America we’re talking about. They won’t rebel. They’ll blame their neighbours and start killing each other (moreso than they already are.) The only people who’ll be safe are the people at the top.

    I’ll deal with it, but could you be a dear and come show me how, in person? And no need to bring any form of security, half the people on this street are former marines, specwar navy, an army Ranger, and about a dozen former national guard. They’ll all be here to ensure security of the country.
