The Supreme Court has blocked President Biden’s plan to cancel up to $20,000 in student loan debt for more than 40 million Americans. The court’s conservative justices expressed skepticism about Biden’s authority to forgive student loan debt without direct authorization from Congress.
So can we start focusing on addressing the cost of higher education rather than these band-aid “fixes” that are meant for election votes?
The government shouldn’t be giving out predatory loans in the first place. Forgiving them after the fact was never a solution.
This Student loan situation is very much a “the road to hell is paved with good intentions” debacle.
We should dig those people who are now trapped with a predatory loan out of the hole they were put into, and then fix the problem at the root.
