These people are already educated.
Debt payoff ideas send money to people with degrees, but they do nothing for people didn't go to college or who haven't yet graduated.
The problem needs to be solved at the source, not periodically bailed out after the fact. If you just pour more money into the system, tuition will skyrocket and people will become insensitive to the astronomical prices. Why even price compare if you just expect the government to pay it off for you later? Expenses would continue to spiral out of control at an accelerated rate.
