I’m not sure

Me too. I did a bad thing. I took out $1800 in further student loans to send to Bernie. I was thinking  my loans would be erased, so no big deal. 

But I really need that money back now. My landlord can’t be held off much longer. If you wouldn’t mind sending me the email?”

I saw this in a thread where Bernie bots wanted their contributions back, I’m not 100% sure it’s not a joke, but it certainly is a great example of why many of us aren’t excited about blanket forgiveness of student loan debt.    It seems like this person admitted to getting student loan money under false pretenses.

It’s either depressing or amusing, your choice.
