Yes because they held a gun to his head and ordered him to not veto it.
Neoliberals don’t like student loan forgiveness, they like Clinton who made it very hard to get it forgiven.
No gun is required when so-called self-interests are threatened. He shouldn’t have caved, but then he also shouldn’t have given credence to the welfare and social safety net talking points from the Reich wing. And the CBC damned well shouldn’t have gone along with bullshit ‘tough on crime’ narratives.
He didn’t veto it and no one forced him. There really is nothing else to say. The neoliberals knew full well the disaster that would follow but not only ignored it they also actively encouraged it.
Anyone with brains could see that if tuition is rising faster than income and you make student loans inescapable you would end up with mountains of debt. The only two options I can see
They couldn’t see the obvious in which case they should have zero power.
They knew this would happen and wanted it.
