  1. That potential trillion dollars in forgiveness has to come from somewhere. Current estimates state that forgiveness will cost roughly $2,000 to $2,500 per taxpayer, whether they went to college or not. That's about $7,500 for my household alone. While forgiving student loans may have an impact on current borrowers, an analysis by the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget said they would expect student loan debt to return to $1.6 trillion by 2028. Just a ploy to garner votes at the taxpayers expense, in other words. Since the plan does nothing to dampen higher education costs, it has no impact on current and future students facing historically high education costs. Student loan debt cancellation may have another negative impact—higher inflation rates. The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget estimates that the influx of $10,000 to $20,000 for millions of borrowers could push inflation rates even higher, with personal consumption expenditure (PCE) inflation increasing by 15–27 basis points. So, yes, I (we) have to pay for your forgiven loan...
  2. Correct. It's called being responsible. Even if it was difficult, you would have made the decision to take care of your responsibilities first. My Dad referred to that as being a "responsible citizen".
  3. Where did the money come from to payoff your loan? The government, right? I along with millions of others fund the government. I know it's a very perplexing concept.
  4. My daughter had a credit card that had 23% interest. Should the government have paid off the interest? I sold my boat and my camper and added a weekend job to help pay for my son's tuition instead of taking a loan like you did. Should I get reimbursed? I didn't take any FEMA money. I have flood insurance. Should FEMA send me money anyway? Your pitiful justification for taking mine and other hardworking people's tax dollars (many of whom make much less than you do) is sickening.
  5. Then why did you sign up for it? Greed? Ignorance? Stupidity? All the above?
  6. I’m not sure I totally understand. What do you mean when you say “…makes our coverage area better.”?
  7. Perhaps your Trump loving friend can share a spot in hell with you...
  8. Thief.
  9. I'm not a Trumper, but you are a thief.
  10. I think they were wrong too. That doesn't absolve you from your debt just because others stole money too. Y'all are both thieves.
  11. That’s despicable. You should be ashamed.
  12. What does that mean? 🙄
  13. Thx. I heard that but was unconfirmed.
  14. Thanks for that. I've always loved Paul Harvey. What a message...
  15. Good Lord...
  16. While that may be true, depth and quality of depth are two different things. I would want to know that my All district QB was in the mix before declaring that they will be fine against a quality team like HF. Just my opinion.
  17. I believe the PAPD officer would have a sufficient basis for stop since the BPD officer had a first-hand observation and could be relied upon as a reliable source. Of course, I could be totally off the mark! Lol.
  18. Anyone have the "health" status on the Lumberton starters who didn't scrimmage the last couple of weeks?
  19. Praying they don't! 🤞
  20. So your saying @CardinalBacker never crossed your mind?... 😎
  21. I just wanna go home...
  22. Gimme the 'Stangs.
  23. Agreed!
