Student Loans ARE outrageous

I am outraged of the way student loans work or in this case don't work....A person usually goes to school for four years (or when specializing even longer) and ends up paying back their student loans for 10 or 15 years.

I was a single responsible student who received $500/month while my sister who had a son received $1200/month (which I can understand) but when it came to paying back her loans she had 65% forgiven....

What is the government trying to say with that message....maybe that they support people to have kids so they can get tax breaks.

I have always have my life planned out and have waited to get all things done in order
#1 Graduating High School
#2 Getting a Specialized Degree
#3 Getting a Car/House
#4 Getting Married/Travelling
#5 Having children (maybe)

Why should I be punished and taxed for actually completing my degree and working in my field...I came up with a plan years ago that would alleviate this problem by forgiving at least half of a person's student loans who has their degree and working in their field....

Saskatchewan has something in place like this, but of course I don't qualify because it is for Grads who graduated from 2006 on.

I really don't understand why when it was my idea in the first place that I can not be given the student loan reduction as well.

I believe that everyone who still has student loans out (whether it be from 1900-present) should be given this incentive too...

Why can the government not support University/College Graduates when they are working in their field.

I really don't understand why we are not being recognized or awarded this money as well
