I recently received a petition to ask the congress or the president or someone in power to forgive student loan debt. I think that is utterly ridiculous. As long as the system stays the same, those loans need to be paid back so other young people can get them as well. If no one pays, where will the loans for the new freshman come from? How will next year’s seniors finish school? Unless the system goes to one like England has, where anyone who is a citizen can go to school for free. Then I would agree that we should forgive all the loans. Until then, there are some things that ought to be left alone.
