Morris and Mansour: Conservatives Can Seize the Student Debt Issue

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

47% : Critics say this is a way of "buying votes" (true), but student loan debt is a real problem plaguing young Americans -- keeping them from moving their lives forward after university, buying homes, having children -- and Democrats are staking their claim on this issue, as Biden "cancels" billions of dollars of debt.
43% : Biden's loan forgiveness sets the stage for the next loan forgiveness -- by forgiving student debt without ending the predatory student loan industry, Biden has ensured that another massive debt forgiveness looms on the horizon.
43% : The skyrocketing of college costs picked up in the late-1990s, when the Clinton administration directed federal money to fund higher education.
30% : President Biden is rolling out his latest round of federal student loan "forgiveness" while continuing to support the predatory loan industry and subsequent degradation of higher education.
