Well, maybe, but it isn't gonna happen with Biden anyways and I doubt any Republican would take it up for much the same reasons you outlined - it wouldn't benefit their own base as much, and elected officials of both parties are essentially owned by whatever segment of the banks actually holds those debts anyways.
Basically because of bribery/campaign finance, wanting to get re-elected over and over....
It seems to me that there are certain things, like education and healthcare, which should not be governed by capitalist principles but that isn't what we have, and now there's all these sunk costs involved, what a total mess

I always wondered about the government using the money instead to form their own higher education, like public higher education, but any kind, including tradeskills or even just teaching how to work a low skill job (like a mini-associates)
Then have it undercut the university prices, since in my opinion university degree costs are kinda ridiculous. This would force competition and universities having motivation to try to lower their costs for higher education. Because the college degree system doesn’t really seem all that streamlined either. I dunno, I’m not an expert in degrees, but it seems there is a decent amount of filler stuff
Anyway, I had other ideas but forgot them already
