Why is the cost of tuition soaring and yet movements against student loan forgiveness is oppossed?
The cost of college tuition is skyrocketing for students and most of whom have no other alternative than to take out student loans, the average for a J.D. degree in the DC area ranges from 70k to over 112k, why is this acceptable? Why is the movement to forgive even part of student loans getting a bad rep?
First, the cost of EVERYTHING is skyrocketing…………..but think about it, a college education is a sound investment, like buying a house, you’ll reek it’s benefits for the remainder of your life………and prices go up based on supply and demand…………..so you invest 120K and your potential for earning enough 2 repay it and live comfortably is what you purchased……….it’s worth it……………Also, it it acceptable for the movement to forgive even part of the student loans is so manipulated i.e. loan forgiveness was initially set up so that people willing to give back to the less fortunate……….(a person who is eligible for loan forgiveness, has committed to teaching in the inner-city school system for a # of years or setting up a community based program that will enhance the community)…………………….Again, the bad rep has been earned………..because folks breach their committment to give back……………….there is no reason 2 forgive loans if there is no benefit to anyone else but the student………………hope this makes a little sense to you……………….good luck!
