He and his wife would also love to have a child, but they worry they won't be able to afford the child-care and health expenses when they have to put $800 a month toward their student loans."Eight hundred dollars a month extra, for me, would be amazing," he said. "It would allow me to start a family, and get a different job.Christine Angelique of Portland, Oregon, signed the Change.
In 2017, she filed for bankruptcy because of her credit card debt, which she said she'd accumulated to cover bills and essentials without a steady, adequate paycheck. She wasn't able to discharge her student loans in the proceeding.. She was furloughed from her job at a hotel in March 2020, and has since been laid off. Some of her student loans are now in default.
I'm surprised it's only a million. Seems obvious that people with large student debt would not want to pay that.
Go pay your debt you deadbeats. You’re going to ruin it for future generations, because they’ll be no student loans to forgive. Morons🤦🏽♂️
Postpone payments or forgive interest sounds better
You’ll need that petition to ask BIDEN to please don’t bring Communism to rul America!!! You slugs
“1 million selfish jerks”...there, fixed it for you
Well duh. Why would anyone pay thier debt during this administration. Just keep printing that money Joe.
Lol losers...well if it happens I'll make a crap load of money in the stock market. And you moron students will go out and party/pay for the debt forgiveness in the future anyway.
How about all the petition signers get off their lazy asses and get a job and pay back their student loans like the rest of us did. Screw these whining entitled babies
If you want America to continue to lead the global economy then you have to fund education and find ways to do it more efficiently and cheaper. If you want our great society to fade away keep the status quo.
It’s not happening.
How many of those million worked to pay their own way or live within their means........or work PERIOD ?
1 million oh boy thats like 0.003 of the population
Of course they would if they have a loan. I paid my way through school by working nights. They can too.
Never going to happen
Why can’t all Americans who make under 1 million get 30k or whatever, why does it only have to be those who were not smart enough to realize what they were doing? Seems silly to punish those who made smart decisions by raising their taxes so someone could take out 100k+ 4 school
..hey can we get a petition to cancel our mortgage and CC debts too?
I think Dogecoin has better chances of reaching $1million
Crazy, where’s the free education coming from? Everyone’s tax payment. Why we have to pay for their education?
Love the word “cancel”. Debt doesn’t get cancelled; it gets paid. Who’s paying?
I would like to thank China, Mexico, Canada & all the poor countries that slave to make real goods to sell us for a currency we print and manipulate. Without you, we would have riots and anarchy in our streets.
Is it 'Canceling a debt' or.. 'transferring the cost from one group to another group, who doesn't reap any benefit from it'? I know a lot of people are hurting, but seeing everyone want to pass the buck when sh*t gets tough, is getting old.
Americans are getting used to government subsidies, slippery slope.
Let’s gooooo at least do the 10K you promised JoeBiden
Y’all signed up for the loans, now pay up!
These are the same people who bought dogecoin at $0.69
That's absolute B.S. and I don't mean a college degree. I paid mine. Let the snowflakes pay theirs.
So people want something for nothing. What if you have no student debt. Shouldn’t you get something too?
To all the idiots that took a loan that they could never pay back. FU pay your own bills like everyone else does!
1 million irresponsible people sign petition calling for responsible people to pay for their lack of good judgment
Good plan cancel 10k first then go to 20k and 30k
And 99% of them Had student loans. Go to work
What about forgiving business loan debt? Some people invested in college. Some didn’t go to college and invested in a dump truck to do construction. Who wins? Who loses? That’s politics.
Will people get refunds that actually paid for their education? Or just the clowns who went to an expensive school that doesn’t want to pay their debt?
And my cable tv bill
Wipe out the interest(gov’t shouldn’t be in the debt slave business) and allow bankruptcy to wipe out student loans. Since Bush signed the law in 2006 omitting student loans from bankruptcy the cost of tuition skyrocketed. Colleges(public & private) are fleecing the students.
I should not have to pay these kids student loans with my hard earned taxed dollars. If you borrow money - Pay it back. Loan forgiveness only teaches there kids a lack of responsibility.
Stop taking selfies and buying stupid looking sunglasses and go take care of your own bad decisions. It’s called being a responsible adult. My boys made sacrifices to complete college debt free. When do they get their free money ?
Can the govt pay off my mortgage too?
People want free stuff? No way!
2 Words ... Personal Responsibility
Pay it off yourself. I paid my degrees off. Don’t use my taxes pay off someone else’s mistakes.
All 1 million have debt. GREED
That’s great considering 44 million people have student debt.
Must have been very difficult to get those signatures from those with student debt.
Racists
Despite what the Democrats tell you, nothing in life is free. Someone has to work to pay for your free ride.
If Biden forgives student loans, will the market for Tbills and other government backed debt dry up? Is everyone in this administration asleep like Uncle Joe?
When these people borrowed the $, did they have any intentions to repay the loans?
The average loan amount of said million people...$83,567
1 million idiots
Nope
Pay your bills losers
Its not fair, i had to pay so everyone should pay. My grandparents rode in cars without seatbelts thats why i dont wear my seatbelt when i drive.
I have-a plan, forgive the debt..tax the ones that have been freed of the debt and take 40% of their income check until portiin is paid and Government pays other portion...
I don't hold a degree and handle two good paying jobs. Why should better off people receive more tax payer funded assistance? This is a real slap in the face for us blue collar workers.
I'm sure I could get more people to ask Biden to forgive credit card debt.
Forgive my gambling debt. I gambled for the same reason you studied liberal arts.
Socialism is beautiful
This Situation would have never occured if the Student loans weren't backed and guaranteed by the State. Go figure
I would be smiling too if I were wanting to make people who did not go to college pay for my college... But I am not selfish and entitled.
1 million people with debt ask president to forgive their debt
