Where by "cancel student debt" Bernie just means that everyone will pay, not just the borrowers. Anything else would break the laws of physics. In the 60s you could fully finance your education working part time as a waiter/waitress (Elizabeth Warren is a notable example). But then government got involved, and now your education costs as much as a house. What Bernie is proposing is essentially an unlimited amount of money for the education industry to take, and no way for the taxpayer to refuse to pay. Thanks but no thanks.
