Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
1) Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

All the analogies are bad. You should be able to fund the studies of future generations without retroactively changing rules that applied to past generations. The correct analogy would be: why do you pay the guy who didn’t work last weekend retroactively for those days they didn’t work, if I was actually working: now we both made the same money and I worked 2 extra days for it which is unfair.
Disclaimer: my education was at no cost to me and I never had student debt, I have no skin in the game. The conversation should be about how we help tomorrow’s students, not about giving money to an arbitrary set of yesterday students.
