  • These two ideas you present aren’t mutually exclusive. Thinking that they are is limiting.

    Example: “Oh hey, yeah the current system is predatory and unfair. [Bam, loans forgiven.] Also, because of that injustice, we never want to put anyone into that position again [Bam, affordable higher education].” Do the rich get “more forgiveness” than the poor? Yeah, that’s not really a problem if 100% == 100%.

    I get that the rich people who pulled up the ladder after getting a cheap college education feel that loan forgiveness is cutting into their earning potential. But the needs of the rich do not and should not outweigh the needs of the many.
