My partner has a master’s in a STEM field and has been working full time since they graduated.
After 10+ years of payment on the IDR plan, they owe just slightly more than what they initially took out!
College for the vast majority of people (Millenials at least) was a scam built on lies, exploitative lending, and fear of social stigma. We aren’t just due loan forgiveness, we’re due compensation for long term damages in the hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of dollars.
