Here’s some perspective.
Americans:
•Cancel student debt!
•Cancel medical debt!
•Make insulin free!
Most of Developed World:
•What is student debt?
•What is medical debt?
•Insulin is already free!
What GOP calls “socialism”—even conservative parties in most developed nations call a “human right.”
@QasimRashid
I see you're point, but it's increasingly common for European's to have student debt.
Obviously it would be a better world if it wasn't the case.
my remarked was based on my experience in France and the UK, I assumed that they where fairly representative, but after a little more research it seems I'm wrong. Tuitions fees are either small or non-existent in a lot of Europe.
(The situation is complicated in France, public University fees are minimal but most of the prestigious instructions are private and do charge big fees)
@robertpi @QasimRashid nationalised healthcare is still to some extent a "sacred cow", although even this is threatened by privatisation and outsourcing.
Student debt has also vastly increased in Europe (as grants have been scaled back), just in the last 30 years - nothing can be taken for granted..
