Society made a seeming promise to them that with a degree they'd find a job with their degree.

Society failed to mention that all of our resumes would wind up in an AI's shred box or that our thousands of hours of blood, sweat and tears would be glossed over in 8 seconds by a hiring manager before being tossed in the (proverbial) bin if said resumes made it past the barely held together sorting algorithm.

Blaming children for accepting loans on the promise of a false future is pretty fucking cruel.

While life is cruel, we should provide for those that have been exploited and seek to shelter future generations from being exploited in a similar manner. Otherwise, what's the point of any of this? If everything is "fuck off, fuck you, got mine" or "fuck off, should've picked better" then don't be surprised when people kick you off the cliff you're dangling from.

Get medical debt first if you really wanna help people.

Forgiving loans and then having the same fucking loan situation exist to just start again does nothing but give people a chance to pat themselves on the back.

A show of kindness may not do much help, but a show of cruelty may do much harm.
