Preview:
President Joe Biden’s recent cancellation of student debt will provide tangible benefits to millions of borrowers, as will his cancellation of billions owed by students who have been defrauded by their colleges and his move to lower monthly payments for all borrowers.
That’s good news, but it isn’t enough. The system that got us here has not changed.
