Zero Fucks Brandon is gonna win the midterms for us.

REPORTER: Is this unfair to people who paid their student loans or chose not to take out loans?

BIDEN: Is it fair to people who, in fact, do not own multi-billion-dollar businesses if they see one of these guys getting all the tax breaks? Is that fair? What do you think?

We can afford to throw a few bucks at student loans because the companies that control student loans are ridiculously shady and they need to be taken down a few pegs.

To look into those who paid for highed education the last 10 or so years, and offer tax breaks or incentives.

Double down on helping the working and middle class.
