consistency. if you think the pandemic conditions no longer warrant slowing immigration, that it follows that student loan payments can also return to normal. but if you believe the pandemic requires continued denial of those seeking asylum at the border, then logically, we need to provide those who owe on student loans some added time. please show me the politicians who apply that sort of critical thinking instead of ideology. i want to know what you think, this hour. go to my website at smerconish.com. answer this week s survey question, should president biden fulfill his campaign pledge to forgive at least $10,000 pursuant loan borrower. joining me is higher education expert beth akers. she s a senior at the american institute. and author of game of loans as well as making college pay.
title 42. because after all, the pandemic is still roaring and we don t want migrants coming in who will might spread covid? i think you re exactly right. this is widely inconsistent. my job is to talk about these things every day and i have a hard time even talking about this as a strategic policy initiative because it s obvious to me it s straight politics. it s getting votes in place for the midterms and i don t think anything continues with this extension. dr. akers, thank you for your expertise. appreciate it. what are your thoughts? tweet me at smerconish or go to my facebook page. i will read some social media reaction throughout the course of the program. hit me with it. what about those of us that were responsible adults and paid back our obligations? why do you encourage deadbeats and laziness by the way, gordon, i don t think you mean
