Do you think that any of them deserve to get their student loans paid off using taxpayer money?
As long as $174k is above $125k, then no.

If they are married and have no second income, they qualify.
And, if they are married they and have no other significant income, they are below $250,000.
Congress always votes on things they may be affected by.
AOC is unmarried, but is in a relationship with a high income individual. She is not getting debt forgiveness.
for one thing, PPP money was used to pay their employees, not their tuition.......
AOC has other tax problems she needs to worry about.

I highlighted AOC (the rest of "The Squad" has loans too) because she's being quite vocal about upping the amount more at the moment. Can you say, quid pro quo?
Majorie Taylor Green had 183,000 dollars of PPP loans for her business forgiven, but you weren't on this board screaming in protest about it.
Is that supposed to make a difference, or are you just reaching again for another excuse?
well, is the money self serving or does it benefit the people who kept working while you lazy fucks cashed your unemployment checks at our expense.......
Tu quoque fallacy. If she does, then she should pay them back.

So should they all. And we're not talking about $10 or $20 thousand here.

You never started a thread screaming about the PPP loans Republican congressmen had forgiven.
Don't forget that Democrats got them too, only difference is that few Democrats in Congress own any sort of personal business and instead got theirs through spouses and relatives that run businesses. That doesn't even include that both Republican and Democrat political organizations got them as well.
It was hardly one-sided, and all that money should be paid back too.
