The stereotype is to think of, say, a Yale Philosophy grad with an enormous amount of debt and a useless degree (NB: I don't think a Phil degree is useless). The reality is that a ton of people have education debt from community and vocational colleges, for degrees and certifications that allowed them to get higher paying jobs, but not necessarily _high_-paying jobs, i.e., they're still working class jobs. For example, a lot of daycares require staff to have a Child Development Associate degree. Forgiveness will be a tremendous boon to a huge swath of such workers.
