I guess you’ve never been to The House on the Rock!
I'd vote Plymouth Rock as the worst. That or the Gum Wall in Seattle.

No, why would we do that?

There should probably some factors on forgiveness including tax bracket proportional calculations, which the prior Biden plan imperfectly addressed.

“People who attended college in the 1968-69 school year paid $1,545 a year, adjusted for inflation, for tuition, fees, room, and board at a public four-year college, Elise Hammond notes at CNN. "If education costs remained in line with inflation, that number would be around $12,000 per year”

and then these generations pushed youths into it with spiraling costs.

You don’t think that even partial loan forgiveness for something that you could argue the prior generation facilitated in vicious predatory cycle should be rectified?

It will never be perfect but again, “it doesn’t help literally everyone so we shouldn’t do anything at all” doesn’t work for me. people wanting to get theirs and mad that they wouldn’t be able to is my cynical reading.

But we didn’t hear this bellyaching on the PPP loan forgiveness when you should have known the risks of running a business!
I.think anyone who has paid more than what the original loan.is for should have the rest forgiven. I know many who had around 50k originally that have paid well more than that  and are still paying. Deferments and or forbearance time are killers

And speaking of something that's always listed on things to do in Phoenix ...

All the times visiting there, I had never gone to Taliesin West, the Frank Lloyd Wright workshop/home. We finally went in April and, well, I'd highly recommend skipping it. It was boring as eff, and it cost $88 for the two of us. After we ended our mercifully short visit, I asked my wife, "So, what did you think?" And she said: "Dollar-for-dollar, it might have been the worst 'tourist attraction' I've ever been to."

The midwest is home to shredded lettuce, shredded cheese, and canned black olives on 'tacos'. Just like your mama used to make.

That's taco dip, not tacos!

Sagging testicles are a normal part of the aging process and I won't let you shame me for that

But how full of microplastics are they?  I think I've got a lot in mine, and we are similarly aged.

I also hate the "fairness" argument. It's a cousin of the sunk cost fallacy. I want things to be better for those that come after me.  What the hell kind of person would i be if I demanded future generations be burdened simply because I was burdened?

You’d be a significant portion of Americans unfortunately.

Famously no Mexicans in the Midwest, and the ingredients can only be sourced from Mexico at the peak of their freshness.   :P

PLM

Would you be supportive of the student loans being forgiven and every person that paid their own way getting a check that matches the average student loan?

No, why would we do that?

Dylan Addae-Wusu is returning to Seton Hall. The Hall also got Emmanuel Okorafor from Louisville, a 6-9 PF who averaged a solid 2.4 ppg and 2.2 rpg in 7 mpg last year.

I wrote update last night.  Both will make it on next weeks update
