#studentloanforgiveness isn't progressive. It's a transfer of wealth from working class taxpayers to college graduates (who earn an average of $30,000 more per year already). We college graduates would get a payment while the working class gets nothing. How is that fair? — PolitiTweet.org

Reading some of the replies, it appears there is confusion about the definition of working class. Economists define working class as those in the labor force without college degrees. There is no white-collar and blue-collar distinction, and the wealth of a worker is irrelevant. — PolitiTweet.org
