These grips are so funny, cuz they dont complain about Military Industrial Complex that just gave 2Trillion Away to a conflict that the american people didnt sanction. what are we at in Ukraine now and Jackson Mississippi doesnt have clean water also? But please preach to me how a meesly 10/20k is inconveniencing me. Id rather my tax dollars go to those who at least thought they were gonna have an awesome career vs the endless intervention wars that only kills people.

Why would someone complain about the Military Industrial Complex in a thread about college loan debt forgiveness?

Have you stood up for victims of human trafficking in this thread? Why do you support human trafficking, you monster?

It's possible to support/dislike more than one government policy/program at a time. Disliking one thing does not imply support for everything else.

Did you take logic in college? Straw man argument. This was covered.

College being astronomically expensive helps the military meet their recruitment goals, thus perpetuating the system that necessitates such a military in the first place

Same with profit based healthcare

They put more recruiters in poorer areas for a good reason

I knew a guy in college who was in the marines. He was a severe alcoholic and already an electrician, but got an extra $4000 or so for being enrolled. He had severe PTSD from an incident when he and his team boarded a small fishing boat and somehow ended up murdering everyone on board, dumping the bodies off the side, and setting it on fire before heading back out on patrol.

He had a DUI shortly after he was really pissed off about, when the cop pulled him over, he rolled down his window and said, " What the fuck do you want faggot? " and proceeded to get arrested. For the night. He was more pissed off that it happened than remorseful.

He got a promotion to lead electrician @ 115K and the owner just gave him a shop vehicle to drive since it was board insurance.

This was also an issue, because he was divorced and his alimony went way up because of his promotion.

Long story short. Consider being an electrician before you consider being a murderer for hire.

Think of all the Kelethin elves with ORSD, (Orc Related Stress Disorder)

Why wouldn't they put more recruiters in poor areas? Should they be forced to put recruitment centers in all parts of the country equally? You have really bad ideas. You don't think we need a military? Your types have no plan, all you want to do is rip out the systems that have worked for 2000 years and have no idea what to replace it with.

The military is necessary, start there.

There is a guy named Jesus who completely disagrees with you

You should read about that guy

We have many ideas, you just hate them all because they are explicitly progressive. Don't get mad at me because the right is repeatedly doing the same thing and expecting different results

are tax dollars used for human trafficking? if so, we should be upset about that aswell.

Its also possible that people only complain about one type of governmental policy vs another all the time. I dont see stop ukraine war. so ur logic is flawed.

So did you take logic in college? ignorant argument when you have no excuse. but to dodge the point.
