I mean sure it looks good I guess but I’m not holding my breath that the White House office of gun violence prevention is going to stop mass shootings.
All this stuff is designed to sound good on paper but then what’s the real impact?
Yeah, what could canceling 144 billion Dollars in student loan debt do?
Yeah that would make my life significantly better. Has that passed the courts yet?
You mean the challenge from the republiQans? That you're siding with?
Here’s how Biden defied the Supreme Court to cancel $144 billion in student loans
Yeah. Now what do you have to say. Let me guess, it's not enough.
“President Joe Biden unveiled another round in his steady drip of student debt write-offs on Thursday, announcing that 78,000 public sector workers would not have to repay $6 billion in loans. … Biden’s previous loan cancellation plan was ruled illegal by the Supreme Court. However, his more recent debt transfers rest on a different legal authority than the original, $400 billion-plus plan.”
Emphasis mine. Literally cut his own demands by two orders of magnitude because he didn’t want to pack the court. I’m very glad those small fraction of borrowers got some relief. We all deserve that.
Question:
Has not having that office done any good?
