Daniel Lakeland on Nostr: I'm against student loan forgiveness, not because I'm against giving the money out... ...
I'm against student loan forgiveness, not because I'm against giving the money out... but because I'm against giving it out *only* to student loan debtors. Here's the idea... give everyone equally a #UBI and let the people with student loans repay it from there. I'm ok with limiting interest rates too, and rolling back capitalization of back interest... totally fine with that. But if we're creating money out of thin air and giving it to anyone, it should 100% be equally distributed.
