US lawmakers are debating student debt-relief proposals, seeking help for people saddled with loans.
But the proposals on the table right now are not a comprehensive solution, experts say.
The problem is a cycle of student loan accumulation, and little education about how this debt works.
It s a familiar sight each year: a sea of soon-to-be college graduates, seated in their caps and gowns, with families and friends watching proudly as they march, one-by-one, across the stage to receive their hard-earned degrees.
But for many of the 35 million student-loan borrowers in the US, the celebration is short-lived. Months out of college, their debts become due and payable, and for some, it will be a heavy burden.
