During his address, Biden also said that the beta test of student loan forgiveness site his administration launched on Friday has, so far, handled 8M+ applications 'without a glitch.'

This is I learned a trade and make more than my fellow classmates who have degrees the real difference here is I have no debt and i accrued knowledge that can pay my bills and they have debt and no knowledge and the only thing theyll learn is that theyll get bailed out of their bad choices....

Why should we pay for student loans someone else took out?
I paid off my own student loan....it's called being a responsible adult.
