That’s the problem with living in a free country, isn’t it. If you take out debt, you have to pay for it. If you can’t afford it, don’t buy it in the first place. Many college students do just that. They spend 2 years at a community college debt free and transfer to an in-state university, because 99% of what they do is going to be learned on the job anyway.
What’s happening here has nothing to do with debt. Politicians are bribing you with empty promises to buy your vote. Don’t be fooled.
