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.

When taking out a loan of any kind, you agree to pay it back. If you don't, your word is no,good and you are dishonest. Is that how you want to be,known in life?

@likesnatural When offering a loan of any kind, it is expected that you not jack up the interest rates to an unaffordable level in order to screw the borrower for life.

@LordShadowfire Also that you tell the borrower the truth about the terms of the loan.
