We all knew the financial obligation being undertaken when applying....no excuse for forgiving the loans....a bad practice from politicians working on building up a following!!
As in my original commentary, none of the above infers a scam.

I apologize...another poster used that word, not you.
Actually, that was not the point. You are making a very very GENERAL point that DOES NOT APPLY to the whole in any way at all.
I believe these opportunities have helped millions who contribute much to our country and society because this was afforded to them.
It seem LAZY on the part of our government, not those taking the loan to not even discuss or engage in public conversation about the good offered and changes that could be made and simply do away with it. Actually, at this point, with so much, it is just words but I believe our congress needs to wake up and GO TO WORK.
You just should not simply cancel programs because it is politically expediant. If you read the links I provided you will see this program of forgiving was introduced and founded on a great idea and basis....you have to work on jobs that benefited society or non profit to have the chance for forgiveness, and an attempt was made to put a ceiling on that with no luck.
Very short sight sided to simply cancel.
