Can I just make a point here? Culturally, we've been telling our children for decades that if you don't go to college, you'll be working at McDonald's for life. I heard it all through school growing up. Many kids just go based on the pressure to do so. How are you supposed to really know what to do with your life at such a young age? Let's say someone gets a basket weaving degree, are they really 100% at fault for that? Some people are lucky and know what they want to do, and just do it. Others stumble onto what they are good at. But for many other average people, they get completely lost in the process and rack up obscene debt while doing so. The system is designed to feed kids into the meat grinder. 18 year old kids who are clueless. Many have no good role models in life to help them understand their options either. I sure didn't.
I don't think debt forgiveness makes sense economically, but we need to do something to end this meat grinder. Preferably by lowering cost of admission or making trades more culturally acceptable.
