undefined_one> It’s the same principle.
It's really not. The system is broken and student loans are extortionate. Borrowers were promised something that was not delivered.
I paid for my loans, too, but I don't think the next generation should suffer because we bought into a broken system. It's been shown that student loan forgiveness will have a hugely positive impact on the economy. I'd much rather we make decisions that benefit society as a whole versus holding on some misplaced idea that it's more important we punish a group for believing the lies they were told.
Also, "most entitled generation ever" is such bullshit, pure and simple. Wage gap, American Dream© being a lie, housing crisis, etc., etc. This generation was led to believe they had a future, but they just can't afford it.>
