      just a heads up, you should look into that rail thing again. the unions ended up getting alot of what they wanted because Biden’s admin did actually follow through with negotiations. definitely not cool, but also not the unambiguous support of corporations you seem to have interpreted it as. IBEW statement. there are people who are still unhappy, because capitalism sucks and they should be unhappy, but lots of railworkers got significantly improved working conditions out of it.

      Biden didn’t even need a bill to forgive student debt.

      He did it unilaterally in the case of people who were defrauded. The whole song and dance with his ‘plan’ was to give him plausible deniability so his corporate backers wouldn’t lose their golden goose.
