That is a very good point.

> Secondly, they already have the degree paying off loans does not increase the number of graduates.

It depends on how the debt is forgiven. If government just pays the colleges then it will suck, but suppose they were like "You sold a defective product to millions of people and we are not paying for it. Deal with it". Then colleges will learn to stop offering useless majors and the number of graduates in bullshit will reduce while the number of graduates in useful stuff will increase.
