@averagejoe1 saidYes. Lots of non college people got relief. In fact, I think everyone did.
"The declaration of an emrgncy...FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS WHO, BECAUSE OF THE COVID, HAD THEIR LOANS FORGIVEN."
I added the last part, because you fellers refrain from doing so. You speak of the college students as if they are the only ones who experienced the emergency. Hell, I experienced it, we all did.
Hey, everybody. Did anyone besides the college students ...[text shortened]... gled out by Biden, experience an emergency? This is a yes or no question.
oh well..............

@averagejoe1 saidYou know as well as I do that massive amounts of Federal aid was sent to citizens and businesses of all sorts during the COVID emergency. You are dishonest to keep pretending that student loan relief is somehow unique.
But this is the exact point of our exchange!!! You say this as if every other american life is all rosy, but we discovered that the college graduates are having hardship. is that right?
But even if it was, the decision who to grant relief to is required to be left to Congress and to the Executive if Congress grants them the authority. Not to right wing judges.

@no1marauder saidDictum, rather than opinions like deciding who most needs money in the family, is getting boring and irrelevant. If we follow your logic of 'citizens and businesses of all sorts", that is false on its face, since not ALL of them received aid. 'Them' is a whole lot of people with empty mailboxes.....people who still wonder, as do I, what the govt was thinking when they gave relief to people with college degrees, who, out of their own mouths, 71% of them, said they were going to travel and dine with the windfall.

Travel and dine with the windfall. Right in your lib faces, I might add. I am going to hand $100 to the next pitiful person I see on the street, and say it came from you guys!!!! Not!

@averagejoe1 saidI didn't major in Art History.
If Suzy majors in Art History, she may make $30k a year. The degree would cost her about $30K a year for her time in college, partying. Yeah, I partied, too, but I had a plan!!!
Teach your kids to have a plan. To compete, to......oh, never mind.
I kicked ass in college, AND I partied my ass off.
That was my plan.
The post that was quoted here has been removedMott, you win the bet. She brought race, for some unknown reason, into it. Although I would have to ask a lib to define what race is these days, they even mix up the words gender and sex. And, I guess, white and race. They also mix up who qualifies for windfall money. Poor folks no, college graduates, off to tour Europe for the summer, yes.
This thread was the weakest in some time for the libs. They never did tell us why the distinctions on the windfall bemeficiaries.

@averagejoe1 saidI assume you have no idea how hard it is for a college educated black man to get a good job that uses his education in, say, Montgomery, Alabama.

@averagejoe1 saidThe whole point is that the judiciary shouldn't decide whether and how windfalls for various beneficiaries are distributed Joe, unless law was applied wrong. I think that point is clear. Judges using no statute or law at all to decide about redistribution of wealth away from people and back to government. Gross

"That is a major problem not just for governance, but for democracy too. Congress is of course a democratic institution; it responds, even if imperfectly, to the preferences of American voters. And agency officials, though not themselves elected, serve a President with the broadest of all political constituencies. But this court? It is, by design, as detached as possible from the body politic. That is why the Court is supposed to stick to its business—to decide only cases and controversies, and to stay away from making this Nation’s policy about subjects like student-loan relief.”
