Dear John,

President-Elect Joe Biden has promised to work to unify Americans. My latest op-ed in NBC argues that he can do so by cancelling student debt and reforming higher education.

But is canceling student debt unfair to those who already paid off their own student loans? Well—debt cancellation helps everyone. It'll boost GDP by $108B a year and add 1.5 million jobs per year. 

Moreover, surviving a past injustice does not mean we should prevent future justice. It means we should accelerate it.

As always, welcome your thoughts! 

with peace,

Qasim
