The student loan debt should never have occurred. From the beginning it was the predatory project of an unholy economic alliance among government, lending companies, and banks. Until the 1970s we had a system in this country for near tuition free college in various places. Such systems exist in every other advanced democracy, and the fact that it doesn’t exist here is not because it’s complicated but because we’re so corrupt. The government should not be run like a business, serving only to enable vulture capitalism to turn any and every human desire into a profit center. It should be run like a family. We should do everything possible to set our young people up to win, not cut them off at their knees. The President can cancel the entire college loan debt using the Higher Education Act. As President I will. #disruptthecorrupt
