I am against student loan repayments. A plumber should not be paying for your gender studies degree.

    So we should remove all tax credits then? That’s what you’re saying? Another quick question, did you take money during covid? Did your business?

      I don’t receive any tax credits. Those are focused on the poor.

      No I did not take or receive any money from the government due to Covid. Most of that was geared towards the poor and I am not poor.

        Well then bully for you. But I think it’s important that we make education easier for folks to obtain.

          It’s easy to obtain. You get good grades, you go to school, you get a degree and you pay the bill.

          The issue is many people go and don’t really need a degree because they’re told it’s the path to success. Most jobs don’t require degrees. So why get one to work at Starbucks?

          We need to change the idea that you need a degree.

              It shouldn’t be free. Sweden provides it to people but they also come out with as much student debt as an American. What we need is to stop expecting degrees for every job.
