Not sure how that works when they just vote for people who promise to erase that debt.

Over 40% of eligible voters don't vote. I find it amazing the only 50% were will to give up the right for a big payday. Put real money behind this and I'm sure your get over 95%.

Then the rest of us can vote to make them pay it back anyway.

Considering that voting is a farce, sounds like a wise move.

A "right" to ditch responsibilities, go back on your word.

You've done a fine job, parents/co-signers of millennials.:rolleyes:

Which is why they would expect to get their voting rights back as soon as the debt was erased.
