The fact that those loans ever existed was an egregious exploitation of America’s young. America should be setting our young people up to win, not cutting them off at their knees. The President could use the Higher Education Act to cancel the entire debt. Quality higher education should be the right of every American who academically achieves it.
My Administration has cancelled student debt for 3.6 million people through various actions, bringing the promise of higher education to more hardworking Americans. And we’re going to keep going.

Going forward, higher education tuition should be “lent” to those student in high demand trades like nurses and teachers. Those who complete the course of study and work two years in the field would be debt free.

How about raiding all the Endowment funds before anything else?

MERE COMPLAINING is NOT BENEFICIAL! Met Marianne & we talked about bringing best of govt best to light. She said “states are like laboratories” to learn what works best. RFK Jr is showing here what we were talking about in a jobs training program.

I agree to a point...but human beings often abuse or take for granted the things that are given to them.

Then when they realize they’ve bought a house that too expensive & too many cars or this or that… Then, they’ll expect the taxpayers to bail them out again. I agree they’ve been ‘somewhat’ manipulated, but we shouldn’t be on the hook for it… 1/3

Not a fan of MW, but she’s right about this

Government loaning taxpayer money out to the tax payers then charging interest is egregious and should be illegal.
