I received effectively the exact answer I expected to receive here though, and it's quite clearly one (like many) scenarios where neither side is going to change their opinion.

One side (generally the "right") wants these people to be held accountable for their actions and deal with their student loans on their own.

The other side (generally the "left") want to have the federal government assist with this colossal societal screwup.

While neither side is arguably "good" with money, it always irks the living hell out of me when the very people saying they desperately need help from the government are going out to eat, buying new cars, using new cell phones, etc as if every one of these things is absolutely a God given entitlement and the assistance is needed so these things can continue to happen.

More like, they want to make the students accountable for the excessive greed of their schools, which they fully support. After all, uneducated people tend to vote for the republicans...

The problem however is in my opinion more that the left (as you call them) concentrate too much on the students and not enough on structural changes in those colleges and their ballooning administrations (which, like I explained in a previous post, rose by over 1000% over the last 25 years for no good reasons).
