Radio K o b j dot com On NOW back to the MARKET, Melinda Show streaming live on the news. Radio K O B. J F CNN is reporting that President Biden has not made a decision. As to whether he will issue an executive order wiping away college loan debt. The push for this to happen is coming from Senators Elizabeth Warren, Chuck Schumer, Bernie Sanders, Democrats in the House. They had a news conference yesterday, asking the president to issue that executive order. And if he does so, under their plan, everyone who owes money to the federal government for a college loan would see up to $50,000 wiped away by that executive order. Wendy is in Leander. Hello, Wendy. Good morning. How are you doing? I'm doing well. What do you think about this idea? Wendy? No, I'm I'm one of these people that Ms Warren thinks she's defending. And it just infuriates me. Because in February I paid off my debt like to be mended My 401 K. And so why? Why should all these other people be absolved of their responsibility? They signed there alone. And in the fact that they're shirking their responsibilities is on Lee showing that they're not going to contribute. The economy. I mean, I'm working three jobs right now, because I want to replenish my 401 K so I'm productive. I'm think you're beginning to the economy, but people who don't even have to be responsible. I don't see how that is going to Tomo. Give us a shot of whatever to them. As far as responsibility goes, I I guess. What did you think Wendy when, when she made the point that 40% of the people who owe money on their college loans did not earn a college diploma. Well, I'm one of those. And I'm still I'm still working. I still have Multiple jobs and I'm not making a huge salary, but I still am. I'm still working. I don't see. I don't see why somebody was out. A degree is owed any more than somebody with a degree. Because those people who got their degrees Yeah, they're probably making more money and they're paying or their loans off sooner. But you if you're a responsible adult, you're gonna figure it out. You're gonna problem solve and find a way to get that debt paid off. And those are the people that are going to really give any kind of boost to the economy, Not not people who keep shirking their responsibilities. So you're not sold that all of us will benefit if this debt is wiped away for 40 million people. I think it will be just the opposite. I agree. Windy again, it is is teaching you not to have personal responsibility. It is not teaching them a thing about finances. And if you could have this wiped away what's to keep them from going into a mortgage? Insane? Oh, well. I can afford this and then come to find out they can't. Are we going to start giving a mortgage forgiveness loans? Exactly. All right, Wendy. Thank you Have a good weekend. 51283605 90 Let me play one of these sound bites again. This is Senator Elizabeth Warren on MSNBC last night. This was after the news conference where she and Schumer and Bernie Sanders and other Democrats called on President Biden to issue this executive order wiping away the college loan dead 40%. The people who are dealing right now we stood alone did do not have a college diploma. These are people who did what we wanted him to do. They tried, but for one reason or another, they couldn't make it May because they were working three jobs may because another baby was born. But for whatever reason, they didn't make it all the way through to their diploma, And that means these air people right now. Were earning what a high school grad can earn but who are struggling with student loan debt. We cancel $50,000 worth of student loan debt. And what that will meet is that 85% of those who are struggling with student loan debt right now about 40 million people will see their student loan debt completely wiped out. Let's go to Matthew in south Austin. Hey, Matthew. Good morning. How are you doing? Good morning, General Wide called in talks. This rare colder one thing, But y'all brought something up that made me want to switch gears on this. Go for it. I want I want to ask you if you question because I do not believe in this loan forgiveness, But let me ask you a question. I don't know how old you are, but I'm 36. If I had the government come in and take care of my finances and get rid of debt, I would never have learned anything. I would never have been able to get where I'm at. Think of where you're at financially. What you have what you've learned what you paid off. The lessons you've learned about how to take personal responsibility of where you are in your life, and we were there because of taking personal responsibility off what decisions you made and where your money has gone. If these people just have something paid for, it's not just about the money. This is about life choices about lessons. Life teaches you how to spend money. And when you have a debt, it learns it teaches you Hey, there was not a good idea. Maybe I shouldn't do that again. It doesn't teach anybody anything. So, besides paying off the student debt, you know well as I do, you're not where you're at. Because somebody came in and took over stuff. It's because you will learn how to spend your money. Why easily? There. She is saying the likelihood of these people ever paying off their debt is very, very slim. And there, the rest of their life will be shaped By that debt. It will hold them back from their full potential and insulting that she's saying they haven't They accomplished the peak of their life that they're never going to get better in or never be able to achieve that next step where they are making more income. All right, Matthew. Thank you. This is Damon on K. L B J. Good morning, Damon. You're on with Marc and Melinda. How you doing? Hi. Good morning. Wonderful show. The manual has hit on a topic and everyone's taken all the bait. Um, I just I can't believe a lot of the stuff I'm hearing until I think about all the things people don't know, because they're speaking from a little bit of ignorance. If you ignore your credit card debt for seven years, it goes away. If you file bankruptcy, your debt goes away. There's lots of relief. There are laws in place. Your student debt never ever goes away,.

But Melissa is producing and will dive right into all of the big stories Unnamed Republicans are being quoted in The New York Times Wall Street Journal all over the place, Kenny, saying If the Republicans lose the race is in Georgia today, Blame Trump. It's his fault. He has driven down turnout among Republicans, with all of this talk that he got robbed, and that thing's air rigged in Georgia, and that's making Republican voters stay home today. Well, that's pretty handy and President Trump said it. It is big rally in Georgia last night. If we lose, they'll blame me. If we win. I won't get any credit. And you know this narrative in the media that some of these Republicans, I guess or espousing about the deep divisions in the Republican Party and all that. Like the parties had some division over the first term of President Trump. Anyway, I would say they're more pronounced now in the waning days of his term as summer, more willing to come forward even anonymously and start spouting this stuff. Yeah, they don't have the guts to give their name and quoted in these articles and I Don't agree with their assertion. They have not persuaded me that they are correct in saying that Trump has done everything he can to damage the two candidates and hold down GOP turnout, right? Yes, he's complained about how things went for him and Georgia, But he's been down there twice to rally and well, he has doing everything he can to support left Lauren produced and and he's been disruptive all along the way. That's why I said maybe there's been divisions. There's been an undercurrent certainly, but by Enlarge. You look at the polling data. How many Republicans support him versus those that don't and and over the course of his first term, he said. I would suggest a pretty fair amount of support among Republicans in the big scheme of things is some of this just people trying to lower expectations. Kind of hedging their bets. Well, if we don't win, we're gonna blame Trump. We can cast the blame on him. I think that some of it because you know a lot of time and he's the one that's gonna be out the door right? So will be easy to say, Hey, it wasn't us. It wasn't anything about the Republican party per se. It was just a trump. And now he's old news. So let's move on. You've got to something similar occurring on the Democrat side. Today In politico.

Thank you all for taking my call and Happy New Year. Happy New Year, Bob. Welcome. Yeah. What might to comments and just kind of what shall flow with it after that? One of your callers had talked about. You know if you had a million more votes to be Trump I mean, get boils down to what Stalin did Have what Stalin says about, uh, not so much who Family boats are out there. But who's counting the votes? And I think this is a very good example of how our democracy is being challenged by not just The last laugh like Pelosi and Schumer, but communism number says not Number one number two I think Cruz has the right idea. I think Corrine and I voted for him. Okay? And I've always thought he was He was a fighter, but I think Koren's has gotten re elected. I think he's uh, basically gonna be soft and go by the wayside, and there's a Ocean closed the tide. He's going to go up and he's going to go down and he's not gonna be a fighter. You know, we in Texas have always been fighters. Right and wrong. And I think that this whole process has been extremely wrong and illegal. And that's kind of getting a nutshell. Oh, again. Wish you guys happen to you, and I appreciate you won't hang on there. Bob. Bob, hang on a second, uh, on Ted Cruz as I listen to Senator Cruz He is saying that he wants to convince the Congress to create a commission and investigate these problems within 10 days and issue a report and in some of his comments he's saying he thinks that That will make an impact on the millions of Americans who believe something illegal or fraudulent or wrong occurred in the election. I disagree with him on that. I think these people have made up their mind and even if there is a 10 Day investigation That's not going to change a lot of the thinking that's out there right now. It will take far longer than 10 days to get to the bottom of a lot of these states. Yeah, I mean, Oh, absolutely. I mean, I truly agree, but but but I think you have to look at the intent. Wow. He had to go where he had to go because this really has gotten to be Big problem. I mean, there's even scuttlebutt out there and I talk about a scuttlebutt being Part of the dad gum machines that we used. Okay, and those type of things really Are not what our country was founded all over. All right, Bob, got you. Thanks so much 51283605 90. Well, the interesting part on those machines. He's talking about the Dominion voting systems. The only point I'll make their mark is, you know they are threatening legal action against some of the host on Fox News and so forth, so It would be interesting if it comes to a court of law. And there actually is lawsuit against some of those codes. Well, evidentiary, you know process would mean we start to find out stuff. Both sides will start looking for data and looking for information and uncover and stuff so If those cases went to court. Maybe we learn more about those voting machines once and for all. If it gets that far, and that takes a lot of time. I like a lot of resource is you could take the case of Georgia Fulton County, which is Atlanta Election night where they said We're going to stop counting for the night, right? And then after everybody left Small group resumed counting. Yeah, You've got to put those people who resumed the counting under oath and really dig in and questioned them and get to the bottom of what happened in a case like that, and the bigger question out of all of this. What if any group or entity in our government is gonna dig in and get to the bottom of this sufficiently enough to where the American people believe when they go vote in a couple of years? That everything's OK and the process is working again. And I'll say we're not there right now. We have not identified this this group no commission for 10 days or anything else. So far, I see no evidence that we figured out a way to really get to the bottom of it. You know, we're not close to getting to that point that you just described Kenny. And part of that is because This began right after the 2016 election with the resistance beginning immediately now, and it persisted throughout the next four years, right? So you've got a lot of the trump voters saying Wait a minute..
