This busines of forgiving loans after 20 years, or whatever it is. Was 25 I think, Obama is changing it to 20. I can see extending it to 30 or 40, with no change in the rate, but to just wipe it away is wrong. It creates the appearance of pandering to the young voters, at the expense of the taxpayers. The federal gov't shouldn't be in the business of student loans in the 1st place, in any capacity. But if they are then they shouldn't be allowing anybody to skate out of their responsibilities to pay it back.
