This needs to be weighed against other priorities as well.
Do I think student loan debt is out of control and burdening our upcoming generation? Absolutely.
Would I pick this over Medicare For All, Early Childcare Subsidies, Infrastructure Rebuilding, Green New Deal? No.
We will not be able to get everything we want in this Biden administration so we must choose judiciously. If I were counseling Biden I wouldn’t choose student debt cancellation.
So serious question that nobody ever answers: say they cancel student debt. what about next year’s freshmen? Do their loans get cancelled too? Is college free now? Are we on the hook for all student loans moving forward? I’m not against the idea, I just wonder how this is supposed to work?

How can anyone argue an uneducated society is better?
The GOP doesn’t want an educated society. They need the population to be oppressed. That’s how they make their money.
