White House not budging on Feb. 1 end to student loans forgiveness

[Docreed2003]

15. The American medical system is at a breaking point

As a direct result of the pandemic, hospitals nation wide are facing nursing shortages. Hospital staffs have been taxed to the maximum for two straight years. I don't think the average person appreciates just how difficult the pandemic has been for medical professionals. A measure of student debt forgiveness would go a long way towards boosting morale for healthcare workers.

I am not suggesting that there should be a total forgiveness but something, anything would be welcomed.

Healthcare is just one beneficiary to student debt relief. I can understand and appreciate the administrations moves to try to restore a measure of normalcy for the financial institutions affected by prolonging the current pause, but thing are not normal and the average student loan holder needs help right now. The economy may be booming for some but it sure doesn't seem like it from where I stand. The pandemic is not going away and all indicators are pointing towards another rough winter.

No matter what the administrations rationale this isn't a good look.
