Maybe student loans should just be bankruptible, like most other debt. is that so radical

The default would be to go to college and then immediately claim bankruptcy, sounds like a "radical" idea that would not end well

You act like claiming bankruptcy is trivial or desired for anyone when it’s my understanding that’s very much not the case

Corinthian Colleges defrauded students. That's the debt that Biden is cancelling today. Corinthian Colleges: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corinthian_Colleges

When people are defrauded financially, how should they be helped? Or should they at all?

What were the consequences for the higher-ups at Corinthian Colleges vs. the hundreds of thousands of students who were defrauded? What should those consequences be?

Forgive student loans has to come with fully free education, since the people who give student loans will start to be more selective on who they give loans to, or stop all together and then nobody gets loans. I don't think either of these things will happen. We can solve the problem and only this generation will have to deal with it but stopping people from getting loans for stupid degrees that don't pay.

They need to stop government-backed student loans if they are to forgive existing ones. Otherwise the problem will never stop.

Once loans aren't available, tuitions will drop like a rock and the system will get much fairer.

What about those that paid their loans or didn't go to college (but will pay for others because of taxes that will be used to pay for them)?

sigh....another "its not fair" strawman

It's not a strawman, it's a serious concern of many people, primarily because there is no talk of fixing the actual problem, just handing out more money as a bandaid to a few.

But it isn't fair. It's obscenely unfair. Had I known I could have gone to an expensive, elite, University at your expense, I might not have commuted by public bus to a community college for the first two years to save money, and then worked full time while completing the next two years at an inexpensive local college.

But could you? They don't admit just anybody. Many such students are admitted with scholarships.

Life is unfair, and that's sad. Still working hard to get somewhere has its benefits regardless of how it got paid for.

Life is unfair. But forcing me to work harder to pay for someone's 4-year country-club undergraduate experience is more than unfair. It's obscene.

Wait 'til you find out how much money you have to pay for someone's 4-year stay in prison!

Probably not how it would work.

A right-wing propaganda piece falsely citing a left-wing propaganda piece arguing for a policy that Biden has not embraced as “confirming” an explanation the cited article offers no support for for a phenomenon (Biden’s support for that policy) that does not exist is... an interesting thing to see.
