Trump admin makes SS Admin send out misleading and political email about tax cuts on SS

[annon123]

I'm in this camp of anger about that . #2 Trying to forgive $1.7 trillion of student debt . Thats insanity . 10's of millions paid there own collage then he wants to forgive the ones that didn't . That angered a ton of people

I do think though, IF AND ONLY IF, students have fulfilled the terms of their loan and then if there is anything remaining left that is forgiven due to the terms of their loan (yes I know that wasn't what Biden was doing, I am talking about fulfilling the terms of your loan to the bitter end where what is then left is forgiven after paying 20 or 25 years worth of payments) they shouldn't get a 1099-C and have to pay income taxes on that money as if it was ordinary income. This was the case and still will be the case (it wasn't during the pandemic pause and that ends 12/31/25).

Unless it got removed at the last minute the bill had in there that students who had their loans forgiven because of disability (and in the case of death as well) then what is written off isn't taxed (eg no 1099-C). That was already the case for anyone who received care at the VA even if the reason for the disability wasn't service related and now that will be true for everyone. I do think that is fair. EDIT - I finally found this in the bill that was signed and it was NOT removed.

I also think changing the terms of loans that people have already signed for shouldn't be changed. That doesn't happen with any other kind of loan and it shouldn't happen with student loans either. In my opinion changing all the repayment plans that people have signed legal documents to enroll in I don't think is right either. If they want to change it for the future fine. People will know what the deal is before they have even taken out a loan and signed the legal paperwork. Changing it after the fact though I think is wrong.

Did you learn that tidbit in one trump's onslaught of fund raising text he sends to his base or did you see that on Fox?

I am not sure I'd include having a budget deficit large enough to trigger $500B in cuts to medicare (2010 bill) over 10 years is saving health care in this country - at least not for the elderly and disabled.

I don't want to get into any political arguments over this one way or another. I am ONLY looking at his promise not to touch Medicare and yet he is doing that indirectly with the budget deficit in the budget bill just signed without also having congress put in there that Medicare would be exempt from those 2010 bill mandated cuts.

Everything you all predicted about the election and ongoing has been wrong, you should be meteorologist where atleast once every 10 days you can be right!

No one cared he was black. Come on, stop pushing that narrative. Doing that is going to make MAGA stronger.

Lmao you don't actually believe that

 

[Medicare bro]

Are you speaking about the extreme minority of people who spouted racist nonsense? The majority of people are not actually racist. Degenerates attack the color of skin, majority of GOP attack policies.

Right… wait until you have enough posts to see the political humor thread.

Also Obama is the only president to have his citizenship questioned in modern times. Why is that, Bro?

Any white agent who worked face to face drung the Obama years heard your typical maga retiree spew racial hate towards Obama admin .if your in the south like me you probably even heard the n word a few times.yeah the backlash from the first black president is one of the things that made Trump possible for sure

During the Obama years 30% of my business was in the South. Like I said you have some degenerates who would lambast Obama for being black, but that wasn't the majority of American's. You are just remembering the few cases because it was probably very shocking to hear what they were saying. Trump was and is an *** who has a way with words. He knows how to get people riled up. He knew Obama was born in the US, but I don't believe he did that out of racism. I cannot deny though Trump is coming through on his promises.
