I assume if you are going to forgive student loan debt, that all of us that paid our obligation will get a refund?
The government if anything needs to make student loans harder to get! Why do you think college tuition has sky rocketed in the past decade? Student loans creating a huge supply of students who borrow the cost of tuition.
Also, We are far from the only profession that exits school with crippling student loan debt and low pay. I have a few doctor friends that are swimming in enough student loan debt to purchase a nice 4 bedroom house and the pay isn't necessarily high for them either.
The pay will eventually correct itself in the airline biz, it just takes time. And by time, I mean years, not months. It doesn't just change because you need it too.
