Because this nation cozies up to ignorance and no longer values education, college students have become nothing but a cash cow to be milked dry by our predatory financial sector.
Students do not deserve to be enslaved to Wall Street greed for life because they had the temerity to want an education.
I graduated from state university in 1977 with a student loan debt of slightly less than $500. Of course, that was when we all agreed that it was useful — in fact, even imperative — for members of an advanced, civilized society to have easy access to higher education. That was before we decided to chuck all that and just let greedy banks make a lifelong meal out of American students.
As for paying for loan forgiveness, take it all out of the Pentagon's worthless, obscene budget.
