Description
America's student loan iceberg totals $1.7 Trillion, with one in six Americans -46million- carrying some student debt. The median loan amount is $17,000. But 6% have debt in excess of $100,000 as high cost graduate programs, med school, law school and business school expand at a faster rate than undergrad debt. Is loan forgiveness the best way to curtail this drag on the US Economy ?
