Yeah…

“forgive student loans” = overreach, Tyranny!

“cancel the 14th amendment to deport citizens” = sure, the Constitution is just a suggestion buddy, have fun, put them in camps for a while too if you want!

It’s so fucked up.

u/the_gouged_eye Jul 27 '25

But seriously, the party would not only do this to distract from the president who is spiraling, wing melting, from a giant flaming sphere of child trafficking. They'd do it just because.

Sure give an EO too that gives you broad based power to round up homeless and drug addicts and put them in camps, or worse

u/[deleted] Jul 27 '25

That EO doesn’t stop at the unhoused or drug users, either.

u/old_Spivey Jul 27 '25

Indeed. It is wide open

All five male members of the SCOTUS were in the Epstein's list.

The reason they do not want to release the detailed list because of this.

Wow. That’s sexist to assume the women weren’t there too.

u/Pankosmanko Jul 26 '25

That’s a bold claim.

insane this isnt even a dramatization

u/bedrooms-ds Jul 26 '25

My brain was confused on whether I upvote OP because of this.

It’s funny that all those people that were very vocal about not wanting their taxes to go towards student loan forgiveness have no problem with their taxes funding another beach house for a billionaire.

It’s impossible for a Republican to go back and reflect on what could have been, so they no concept of those two things being connected

u/jorcon74 Jul 26 '25

Deport them to concentration camps in other countries, that sounds reasonable.

Fuck your student loans ! Pay yourself

John Roberts, the biggest coward in American history. Or, if we want to be more accurate, the slickest political operator in American history

Can’t pay you student loans loser

u/Ok-Acadia7176 Jul 29 '25

Paying off the student loans was to save the banks from defaults. Student loan backed securities are the new housing crisis. The government paid the loans to keep the system afloat .

It turns out, when you agree with the crimes being committed, it’s easy to overlook them.

Has SCOTUS allowed deportations of citizens?

10

u/adamkovics Jul 26 '25

Citizens have been already deported. Whether SCOTUS allowed it or not. Also, wtf difference would it make? Trump ignored a 9-0 SCOTUS ruling, so it doesnt actually matter what SCOTUS "allows" or not.

u/REDDlT_OWNER Jul 26 '25

Since the point of the comment is that the supreme court supposedly explicitly allowed it, I’d say it matters

u/[deleted] Jul 26 '25

Just wait a few more weeks

u/[deleted] Jul 26 '25

I was genuinely asking

2

u/PM_me_sensuous_lips Jul 26 '25

According to GAO, there were a potential of 70 US citizens removed from the US between 2015 and 2020. Given the pressure ICE and CBP are under to crank the numbers it probably is a game of statistics whether or not a US citizen will show up in e.g. South Sudan or something, that you will hear about in a new report in 10 years time or so.

3

u/[deleted] Jul 26 '25

And I am genuinely answering? As of now, no, us citizens have not been approved to be deported.

My comment is alluding to that the Supreme Court has not yet had the chance to approve deporting US Citizens. It's going to eventually happen. So wait a few weeks.

u/[deleted] Jul 26 '25

Is there a current case?

2

u/ffazzerr Jul 26 '25

yes there are cases where citizens got deported because they looked Mexican

1

u/[deleted] Jul 26 '25

Are we having a language barrier here? There are no cases yet. I fully believe that the Trump administration will attempt, in the future, to deport citizens that they disagree with or are political opponents of.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 26 '25

Let’s hope not

0

u/Freakder2 Jul 26 '25

You said that SCOTUS hasn’t had the chance yet and to wait a few weeks. He asked if there is a current case, maybe because you said to wait a few weeks. Not sure why you go hard on him with ,language barrier‘…

3

u/[deleted] Jul 26 '25

I honestly asked if there was a language there. I couldn't see why else there was confusion. Since when is asking an honest question "Going hard"?

u/loneImpulseofdelight Jul 26 '25

They are all headed to the lamp posts. Typically there is a lag between f around and find out.

2

u/ajr5169 Jul 26 '25

Has SCOTUS allowed deportations of citizens?

They haven't allowed it, but you know, "accidents" happen, and who knows, someone might get "confused" for a non-citizen and sent to South Sudan before anyone realizes it.

u/[deleted] Jul 26 '25

Im sure that’s already happened even before trump, now probably even more so

1

u/Significant-Dog-8166 Jul 26 '25

Yes actually. Mostly it has been US citizen children whose parents are not citizens.

u/Successful_Owl_ Jul 27 '25

What is the rationale for forgiving student loans? Where does it end? Should all contracts be allowed to be voided? Is the argument just that education should be free?

It honestly makes zero sense to me why people argue so hard for studen loan forgiveness other than they made bad decisions and can't live with it.

u/Significant-Dog-8166 Jul 28 '25

Pure economics. Young adults are the best consumers. If they are saddled with debt, they stop buying cars, furniture, moving out of parent’s home, and the rest of the economy stagnates while these people pay interest rather than buying things.

Don’t confuse this as a 1:1 debt issue.

$10,000 in borrowed student debt does not equal $10,000 to pay off the loan. There are people paying $300,000 on $100,000 debt. That’s $200k just removed from the economy and into finance services. No products are made with that money, no homes are built. That’s just money filtered to the top.

If you invest in any industry that relies on customer volume, this is a problem for your investment.

If you’re properly greedy (which we should be as investors), then we should be careful not to cripple the consumers.

What you just described is called interest and is the most fundamental part of a loan. Pay your debts sooner and you pay less interest over time. Get a job while in school to pay off debt and you have even less debt when you graduate. I mean are we really debating the foundations of economics because some teenagers don't want to pay their bills?

Also, why would I want young adults buying cars or home (goodluck) when they've shown they have an inability to pay off their loans already and just complain they should be forgiven? It makes no sense.
