Yeah, I'll sue to stop that one.

Sue to recoup interim losses, with compounding interest of course, from the day you started paying off your loans.

Every dollar you spent is a dollar you should not have had to spend if the broad criteria for "loan forgiveness" is just having debt that you don't like.

Don't want to pay back the loan you took out, Millennials? Too bad. Pay it back like tens of millions of your America peers have done. Pay it back like millions of Americans currently are.

Don't like it? Too fucking bad. You took it out, pay it back.

Omar’s Rent and Mortgage Cancellation Act would cancel rent and mortgage payments nationwide on your primary occupied residence during the pandemic. It is a “full payment forgiveness” meaning your payments aren’t deferred - they are simply canceled. The interest on the debt does not accrue, there is no negative impact on credit rating, and there is no record of missing payments on rental history. It’s as if the payment never existed in the first place.

Very nice, and very fair, the debt just goes away, so no one loses anything. Why didn't we think of this sooner?

I paid my mortgage during the pandemic, are they gonna give me a check for all those months?
