IOW you believe that ppl should choose their future career based on monetary reasons rather than their talent, skills, and desires. You would have gone far in the old USSR. What a shame you were born here.
I'm very pleased that my daughter is having her student loan forgiven. How unfortunate that we have citizens who believe that teaching -- esp. children with special needs -- is a stupid choice of career.
No, I believe they should do it on both. If you have a lot of talent playing guitar and you are also say, a good carpenter or accountant, you shouldn't choose playing guitar as your career choice unless you don't mind making squat doing it. The number of people paid a lot of money to play guitar can be counted on your fingers, while the number of carpenters and accountants that make good money number in the thousands, even tens of thousands.
Just because you think you should be an astronaut doesn't mean you get to be one. That also means if what you choose to do pays for shit, then that's on you and you alone. You don't deserve to have your legal debts relieved on what amounts to a whim by a moron of a politician. I have to pay my debts. So, stop whining and pay yours. If you don't like the money you get paid to do what you do, change careers or jobs.
