It's more complicated than that. Inflation is a combination of supply and demand. Too few goods for an extended period of time? Inflation. Excess money allowing people to bid up for the goods they want? Inflation.

A sudden reduction of debt might contribute to people spending more for the same goods they already buy, or it might lead to more savings and investment as people are able to escape living paycheck to paycheck and start entering stock markets. It might mean they are able to buy goods and services they couldn't before, but those goods might have ample supply.

It's just not as simple as, X therefore inflation.

Right, they change the who from "former student" to "no one".

A huge group of Americans have less than $1000 in the bank. A student loan of $20k can still be a huge financial hardship for them.

Yes, all outlets are biased. It is literally impossible to have a neutral news source.

I think we can agree that there is a material difference there.

No, I'm not debating it. I'm asserting it. It is not a subject of debate. You might as well debate the existence of left handed people.

Almost everyone isn't red haired, doesn't make it ok to exclude red haired people just because they represent 3% of the population.

I'm saying there are gay men in all countries, whether they are in the open or not. Their existence might be underground or behind closed doors, but they are there.

You do not see the hypocrisy in your position?

Homosexuality is not unique to humans, it's common in the animal kingdom (including humans) and only unusual in some countries for cultural reasons.

It's also universal among all countries around the world. Just some criminalize it.

> it's also true that the state has no obligation to subsidize particular lifestyles

So you oppose heterosexual marriage as well? As it is also a particular lifestyle.

I have panniers and a cargo rack on the front and back, I've carried six or seven bags of groceries without having to think hard. I've carried a car seat and two large plastic totes at the same time with a bit of Bungie cording.

I have a tern, it's amazing. I can bike at 30mph, most of my errands within a ten mile trip are doable on bike. I do grocery shopping, cargo delivery, a bunch of stuff. It doesn't replace a car for all trips, but you'd be surprised how many trips it replaces.
