Dear GOP Jerks: You're concerned about your taxes funding student loan forgiveness? Well, my taxes have funded:
+ war in Iraq, made under false pretenses + a giant corporate bailout that did nothing to help the bottom 40% you claim to care about + tax breaks for the rich
+ loan forgiveness for right-wing commentators, Senators and representatives + the forced separation of families at our borders + subsidizing the fossil fuel industry responsible for disastrous climate change + the salaries of 50 GOP Senators hell-bent on breaking democracy
...I could go on, but I won't. If you have no problem with your tax dollars going to spread misery, war, death, and hatred but you have a big problem with Americans unburdened from life-long debt, it says a lot more about you than anyone else.
