I get it. The students of are our future. Bernie and other progressives like Warren seem to understand that future has to be protected, and not cripple it before it can grow...
Bernie Sanders to unveil plan to cancel all $1.6 trillion of student loan debt
On the other hand, canceling the student loan debt sounds fine, but isn't it just one half of what should actually be done? If the system that allowed all that debt to be accumulated is not reformed, in a few years you're going to need to cancel a similar amount of student loan debt again.
Here's an alternative proposal. Why not more work/study programs, apprenticeships, and some form of service to the country to forgive student loans? These rainbow and unicorn campaigns are not helping progressives much. This is partly how the Trumpster will defeat them in 2020 again. These guys need to wise up if they really wish to win.
