Reminds me of the student loan forgiveness nonsense in the US now days. We’re supposed to forgive one generation’s debt, but not another’s.

- imtringued 5y agoYeah student loan forgiveness is a terrible idea. They should just be made dischargable after 10 years. I've had it with the "they will immediately discharge the debt after graduation" meme. Yes, just add a delay and let them rot on the streets if they are that cheap. If people can't repay their student loans within 10 years then it was a bad deal to begin with.

- runawaybottle 5y agoIn what way?
- lupire 5y agoAlso don't forgive debt or lost opportunity incurred by people of the same generation who were more frugal and careful.
- runawaybottle 5y agoOr better yet. Sue your school for a refund. Why make the rest of us pay with our tax dollars? Hypothetically, even if we did collectively bail out a bunch of liberal arts majors, I would still want to see an extensive shuttering of half the country’s higher education institutions for hoodwinking so many people out of their time and money.
