Life is not fair. It has never been fair. I didn't go to college. My husband did but costs were reasonable fifty years ago. Our son earned a four year degree fifteen years ago, but he also worked and we paid tuition. There were no loans, but costs had not yet skyrocketed. I agree loan forgiveness is a stupid idea pushed by Progressives but it won't stop us from voting Democrat. Republicans are an authoritarian party hellbent on destroying democracy. Nineteen ten year olds were massacred in Uvalde, but R's always choose guns over dead children. As for the elitist tag, it's always wealthy white guys using it to criticize the other side. We're not Democrats, but we know they're the only party that isn't racist, xenophobic or authoritarian.
