What are your thoughts on student loan forgivness?

I guess the thing is that if someone loans you money, you should pay it back. It's only fair, right? That's the purpose of a mortgage, for example.

It depends on the value of what you are getting. Many would argue that the return on investment for a college education is not exactly great. Personally I do not see a problem with student loan forgiveness. I liken it to paying taxes for education. Even if I don't personally benefit, it still should be available for free.

@Justme22 As I was telling someone else, there are some situations beyond someone's control such as disability in which loan forgiveness would make sense.

@latinbutterfly Or you know a pandemic where a good portion of the economy collapsed.

@Justme22 True. The past couple of years have been very rough for many 😕.
