This article discusses a growing problem facing many college students and graduates, which is that of student loan debt. It is obvious that we need to do something but what can be done? Will people start to just get jobs out of high school instead of taking on massive amounts of debt to go to college?

  1. I think the government should help make the college education way more affordable. The idea of wanting a country to grow yet all of the youth coming into positions of careers with money can't spend it for 10 years or more. Give every student half off their debt and that's enough money for everyone to invest into the economy.

  2. Student loans suck. I really hope that some system comes into play that helps students pay off their debt

  3. Having a system where people can actually live comfortably after graduating college will help our economy and overall well-being as a country much more achievable. I recall Bianca saying that there are many people leaving the U.S. to work in China because of greater opportunities with a greater income. This will continue to be an option for many American collegiate graduates, especially if they are looking for ways to pay-off their students debts. I agree with Shane, student loans "suck" indeed.
