Those numbers are very similar in size.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, also on Monday morning,\u00a0<em>Forbes<\/em>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/zackfriedman\/2018\/12\/17\/betsy-devos-to-forgive-150-million-of-student-loans\/#59708e6f56b3\">noted<\/a>\u00a0how\u2014due to the fraudulent practices of for-profit colleges and under orders from a federal court\u2014the U.S. Department of Education will cancel $150 million in student loans, proving the federal government does, indeed, have the power to leverage its authority to correct an economic wrong.<\/p>\n<p>As good as it might be for those students who are having their debt cancelled, $150 million is just 0.01 percent of the nearly $1.5 trillion in overall student debt liability.<\/p>\n<p>While a majority loans are held by private institutions, Paul Della Guardia, economist at the Institute of International Finance, explained to\u00a0<em>Bloomberg<\/em>\u00a0that &#8220;over 90% of student loans are guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Education.&#8221; When the next economic downturn hits or if &#8220;a recession causes a rise in youth unemployment and triggers mass defaults,&#8221; warned Della Guardia, &#8220;this contingent liability could prove burdensome for the U.S. government budget.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So if it&#8217;s possible to forgive a small portion of the overall student debt\u2014and if the country can afford to give away $1.5 trillion in tax revenue, mostly to the wealthy and companies that don&#8217;t need it\u2014why not just forgive all of the outstanding U.S. student debt?<\/p>\n<p>Some economists think it&#8217;s a brilliant\u2014and practical\u2014idea. Earlier this year, a team economists published a\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.levyinstitute.org\/pubs\/rpr_2_6.pdf\">paper<\/a>\u00a0(pdf) detailing the macroeconomics benefits of mass student debt cancellation.<\/p>\n<p>According to the paper, put out through the Levy Economics Institute of Bard College, forgiving the more than $1.4 trillion in outstanding student loan debt held by approximately 44 million Americans would boost the nation&#8217;s gross national product anywhere from $86 billion to $108 billion annually for the first decade following the debt cancellation. &#8220;Getting rid of the debt,&#8221;\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketwatch.com\/story\/canceling-14-trillion-in-student-debt-could-have-major-benefits-for-the-economy-2018-02-07\">reported<\/a>\u00a0<em>MarketWatch<\/em>\u00a0at the time of the paper&#8217;s release, &#8220;would also lower the average unemployment rate by 0.22 to 0.36 percentage points over 10 years and could add between 1.2 million and 1.5 million jobs per year.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In February of 2018, economist Stephanie Kelton, a fellow at the Sanders Institute and one of the authors of that study,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=GIo-5d4xBlQ\">sat down with Jane Sander<\/a>s, co-founder of the institute, to discuss why the cancelling all U.S. student debt is not only possible, by a viable and smart financial prescription.<\/p>\n<p>Watch:<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GIo-5d4xBlQ\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><em>Correction: An earlier version of this piece miscalculated the amount of student debt cancelled by the Department of Education as a percentage of total student debt.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 License<\/em><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>December 17, 2018\u00a0by Common Dreams Student debt has doubled since 2009, but economists argue that forgiving all of it\u2014that&#8217;s right, all of it\u2014is something the country needs and can clearly afford. by\u00a0Jon Queally, staff writer A new study explores the economic benefits of cancelling student debt.
