the problem with our government ‘forgiving’ student loans is not only that many struggled for years to pay their debt off, and expecting them to now pay off someone else’s debt is unfair. it’s that colleges should be held accountable for this.

I am "forced" to pay school taxes and have no children...but it's a common good. Kids, imo, should have a quality education and for teachers to have resources they need....I'm happy to pay it. "Common good" is a concept many people are missing.
a two hundred thousand dollar english literature degree from a four-year sleep away summer camp is not a public good

I agree it's a problem that colleges charge what they do (and that should be addressed), but an educated public benefits us all.

that is just not true. our benefit depends on what people learn, and when, and the system you are trying to force me to pay for after a decade managing my own debt is absolutely a frilly commodity we don’t need.
