Letter to the editor: Right, wrong and loan forgiveness
Vice President Kamala Harris, when asked about the policy on student loan forgiveness, answered, “First of all, a lot of the same people who are criticizing what we rightly did in following through on a commitment that we made to forgive student loan debt are the same people who voted for a tax cut for the richest Americans.”
To translate: When the government takes a person’s money and gives it away to another person, for some reason that’s OK. But when the government lets a person keep the money that is rightly theirs, for some reason that’s not OK. What an extremely distorted view of right, wrong and fairness.
