Or
Should You BOYCOTT Repaying Your Student Loans?💰 | The Left Wing 16.2
With U.S. federal student loan payments set to resume in a matter of weeks, more than 6 in 10 borrowers say they're likely to boycott repayments, an intelligent.com survey published Wednesday revealed.
Nearly half of the 1,000 borrowers surveyed believe boycotting could lead to all student debt being forgiven, while 3 in 4 respondents also said they think a boycott would be "somewhat" or "highly" likely to help elect politicians who support loan forgiveness.
Some of the write-in responses from borrowers inclined to boycott loan repayments include:
"I simply do not have the money."
"We have not been paying for so long, so why not just do away with the student loans?"
"Because I think some of the loans are predatory and unfair."
