A writer and professor’s thread about student loan debt has inspired people to talk about the debt they’re facing, and the amount is truly staggering. Lacy M. Johnson, whose Ph.D. is in creative writing, revealed that despite making timely payments for over a decade to pay back the $70,000 loan she took out, almost equaling the amount of the loan in the first place… it hasn’t gotten any smaller.

The responses to her thread tell the same story: after decades of trying to pay back their student debts and getting absolutely nowhere due to rapidly and unpredictably increasing interest, people feel almost like they are being punished for life just for getting an education.
