    Part of the (small) student loans I’ve since paid off went to pay for my Econ 101 class, so I understand that having a big portion of the economy tied up paying student loans is a bad thing for everyone.

    Now the big problem is we’ve made college the default next step and we’re running out of tradesmen while having a glut of college grads serving coffee and doing gig work.

      I just read an article stating that this is starting to change. The article claimed gen Z has been entering trades at a much higher rate than millennials.
