Why would you even post something like this? How ignorant are you? So people who owe $120k+ on loans suddenly don't need to be able to drive anywhere? So people should be made fun of for trying to save the planet and give you less health problems? Or is it only liberal elites who don't deserve loan forgiveness because they're on the wrong side? I don't hear the same moaning about the PPP loans that forgave millions in debt under Trump. How much do you hate me, Norgarth? Seriously, fuck off.
Actually I was thinking that you can get a non-electric car for a hell of a lot cheaper than $60k, so if your finances are tight because of student loans, then you'd take a more affordable option for transport.
This was not aimed at you in particular, as I have no clue what you drive or what your financial situation is like.
I posted it because I found it amusing. Now, it certainly wouldn't be the first time I thought something was funny because I misunderstood the context behind it, and it sounds like that's the case here.
Car and Driver tells us that the average price for a new car in December 2021 was $47,077 US. A $60k car is not out of line, especially if it's an electric car.
So, no, the image wasn't funny. It was telling people who've graduated from college that they should "pay for college & pay off their loans like [the Boomers] did"
