Most of that got struck down. RBG could've stepped aside and we'd have one more dem judge. It's easy to call me selfish but every president has served your best interests your entire life AC. Can't be said for me. Yall got the rewards. Can you break this down for me, I legitimately can't understand what you're saying here. Every President in AC's lifetime has served his best interests but not yours? What were the awesome things Reagan and Bush were doing for a young AC? Is this entire thing about student loans for you? Biden is certainly the only President who not only considered but actually tried to wipe out the student loans.

I'll vote for her, but fuck her Let's put hard working mothers in jail for smokin weed... In california of all places... She was a DA. I don't really think she much of a choice at the time. Come on man. This blue no matter who, we're OBVIOUSLY better than them shit ain't it. We should have more of a choice in this shit but the DNC doesn't care what young people think. They serve YOU.

I was 10 fucking years old when Reagan was inaugurated. All I read in your posts is how the President no matter the legislative hurdles or realities of our shitty Government should personally benefit Pete. I'm 53 years old and live in the same two-bedroom condo I have lived in for the past 23 years. Sorry I'm living the high life while you have it so tough champ.

Yeah, these dudes are just being hampered by the damn legislative branch, thats it. Come on.
Keep pretending yall didn't have easier, that's fine man. The lame insults are expected and par for the course.

It's all about the Boomers. We're the forgotten generation. It's one of our defining characteristics. The OG latchkey kids. The ones stuck in lousy jobs on the corporate ladder because the Boomers above us refused to make way for us (kind of like Biden refusing to pass on the torch up until yesterday). Some survey I saw recently skipped right over us and went from Boomers to the more populous Millennials. Nobody's done anything for or with Gen. X in mind and at this point we're generally okay with that.

I'll bow out of this conversation ow because I legitimately don't know what you want or how you think things work. I'll go back to stacking my cash from the windfalls of the Reagan and Bush Presidencies.

I ain't one of those "I paid mine, it ain't fair if you don't pay yours" types and I'm all for student loan debt forgiveness, but that idea didn't even exist in the twinkle of some Dem politician's eye until we were in our 50's. I'm happy that some in the younger generation had their loan's forgiven, or partly forgiven, or whatever the case, but back in the 80's, 90's, 00's nobody was thinking 'let's give Gen X. and older Millennials student loan forgiveness.' I'm curious to learn about what specific rewards we got. When I was younger me and everyone I knew felt we were neglected and passed over.

sounds like every generation gets persecuted until they are old enough to blame everything on the young whipper snappers...

I blame the Boomers - there lies the power. Never once blamed anything on the Milennials or Gen Z. We're all living under policies and societal norms created by the Boomers. And they got some stuff right, too. I don't consider older folks who say things like 'the garbage these kids today call music' as laying blame. I guess some right wingers ain't too happy with Gen. Z's focus on inclusion and all that ('DEI has ruined our culture'), so you've got a point.

I’m over all the whining.
There’s too many people out there who just complain about everything and don’t do anything to help themselves.
These are also the people who expect to have some perfect candidate that’s going to wave a magic wand and make things easier for them.

No reason to drag AC’s age into this or the policies his Whig Party has had on this country today. He was just a young man trying to navigate the American frontier.

We could've had BETTER candidates if the DNC hadn't gone out of their way to stop actual progressives.

These are also the people who expect to have some perfect candidate that’s going to wave a magic wand and make things easier for them. Same boat. Everyone has had it bad and everyone has had it good. You're in control of your surroundings and if you project your shitty situation on others then you're an asshat, plain and simple. We are all people and we will all go through life with our government trying to fuck us, the best possible thing to do is vote for the part of the government that will at least give us the curtesy of lubing up first.
