Joshua Weil: ELIMINATE STUDENT DEBT

Florida

ORGANIZATIONS IN THIS STORY

Working people in America have never been the priority of those who represent them. Our Government has allowed barriers to employment and education for far too long, keeping the working class one step behind. It’s long past time for that to change and for the American Government to start putting your priorities first. The children of wealthy families do not need to take out students loans in order to attend college, student loans are effectively a tax on the poor and middle class for daring to reach beyond their station.

 

As an educator I know firsthand that the cost of higher education is a social barrier that only harms working people. We need to Eliminate Student Debt — not just by canceling existing student loans, but by eliminating the student loan industry altogether. Student loans are the only way that working people are able to afford a college education. Eliminating Student Debt altogether will force colleges and universities to drastically lower the price of higher education, allowing the working class a clear pathway to better jobs.
