Student loans are borrowed money to help pay for education. The political debate about student loans often involves the burden of student debt, whether interest rates should be lowered, and if there should be forgiveness programs. Some argue for forgiving loans to alleviate financial stress on graduates, while others believe borrowers should repay their loans to maintain fiscal responsibility.
