Was expecting this to be standard GOP garbage, but after reading... I'm actually kind of mixed on it?

  • The first three bills don't seem bad, but I don't think they'll have any significant impact.
  • The fifth bill sounds like it may have an impact, but I'm curious if experts think uncapped graduate loans are really drivers of the problem.
  • The fourth bill sounds the worst to me, feels like GOP trying to cut enrollment in liberal arts, disregarding that those programs are important even if the pay is not as good.

I'm not opposed to Biden's loan forgiveness, but I've always felt like it's like putting a bandaid on a chainsaw wound and won't fix the underlying problem of college being too expensive. I like to see proposals addressing that instead, and this sort of does. Wonder if there's any chance of any of these passing, though.
