I’m not supportive of student debt forgiveness myself, much as I would benefit from it. In fact, I did a lot of what you did as well, although I still had to take out loans because of the costs being so high.
In fact, it’s exactly that rationale which is why I get angry about all the demand for debt relief, because the loudest complainers are often those who don’t need or deserve it the most.
I’m just a little annoyed at the generational bashing that comes up with this topic. Not all of us Gen Yers are deadbeats (although a lot are).
I judge each person on the basis of what they do, and if I don’t know what they do, I reserve judgement when I can.
I do make an exception for liberals. If someone adheres to its principles, then they have revealed themselves.
That said, I do feel a degree of sympathy for people like yourselves who are grouped in with a larger group that is a subject of criticism, even though they may have little or nothing in common with them. I live in Massachusetts, so you will understand exactly what I mean...:)
