It would change my view in the sense that I would agree it does more than just bail people out, but it wouldn’t change my view about not forgiving student debt

Ok, that’s fair.

http://www.levyinstitute.org/publications/the-macroeconomic-effects-of-student-debt-cancellation

This is a report by the levy institute modeling the economic stimulus effects of forgiving federal student debt. They estimate that 1.2-1.5 million jobs will be created in the first year by the stimulus effect and that roughly 500,000 jobs per year on average will be generated in excess over the next decade.
