      Conversely, Biden supported the 2005 bill that made student loan debt nearly impossible to discharge in bankruptcy. I know this isn’t a popular opinion around these parts, but the terms of these loans weren’t a secret, picking and choosing who to relieve of them via the public coffers is akin to attempting to buy votes. He should have capped interest rates for all existing loans and worked for future reform so this doesn’t remain a problem.

          Did you read the last sentence of my reply? I made a specific suggestion at a non targeted approach and suggested addressing the root of the problem. Biden’s actions bellie his motives.
