      It should also be said that just because I already paid my student loans off doesn’t mean I don’t want other people to be in debt. Student loan forgiveness needs to be up there with the livable wage.

        There’s some double negation confusion at work here, but I think you wrote that you do want other people to be in debt ;)

          Yes. You’re right. Thankfully it seems everyone understands what I meant though. 😊

        Student loan forgiveness is regressive by definition (those lucky enough to go to college are a minority that earns on average $0.5 to $1 million more over their lifetimes, than those who don’t), aren’t you against wealth transfers from poorer to richer?

      This fight is about us taking from the rich, not from each other.

      Beautiful stated, cutting right to the heart of the matter.

          Ever considered OR? I’m a surgical tech now but in nursing school, plan is to just switch over to the dark but stay at the same hospital.

          One patient at a time. No crazy family members. It’s chill as fuck behind that red line!
