The meme about blue collar workers paying off student

Loans..

I saw the memes on Facebook. What I never read in the comment section is that many of the students who benefited from the loan forgiveness are coming from blue collar backgrounds. This is what this country is about. Giving those in need a chance to improve their lives.

They're barking up the wrong tree with this tact. Blue collar families are more likely to take student loans than rich ones. The American Dream blue collar families are chasing is for their kids to go to college.
