> I'd like to see student loan debt forgiven along with implementing a plan to address the cause of this ballooning debt.

Forgiving debt incentivizes debt though. It's impossible to address the root cause and forgive the debt.

That's why I'm suggesting that forgiveness of any existing debt should be linked to a big policy change.

For example, make student load debt dischargeable in bankruptcy like any other debt, and at the same time impose tuition caps at state universities to make them affordable again.
