I don’t know if it’s the number one problem, but it does get support from people because student loan debt is known to force delay of other life decisions that promote investment, economic activity, and population growth (in no particular order): getting married, buying cars, homes, having kids, and investing for retirement. If you free up some percentage of student debt to reorient to those other goals, the thinking is that you’d get people spending and growing the economy rather than simply servicing debt.

It gets support from “people” because most of the low-level staff in newsrooms and ad agencies and PACs and think tanks and hill staffers are… wait for it… recent college grads with more loans their employment can cover.
