Student loan debt should not be cancelled except when the school isn’t valid. It’s unfair for a plumber to pay for someone else’s degree.

      Gas subsidies are an economic decision to lower transport costs for industry and consumers alike, it’s why our gas prices are so much lower than practically anywhere else. Besides stunting renewable development, it’s a perfectly reasonable strategy.

      Cancelling student loan debt and, ultimately, overhauling the system that puts students into said debt in the first place is also beneficial to society. More educated, intelligent, and qualified people only hurts reactionary and regressive goals.

        How is canceling student loan debt helping society? Does that benefit outweigh the cost?

        More college educated people will not necessarily improve society, there are many majors that provide no benefit.
