Letter: Extend loan payments to help those in debt

A good way to help students pay back loans is to give them an additional five year to repay.

Also, regarding having the ones with a good credit score paying more for a mortgage loan: Have lenders give the ones with lower scores a 35-year mortgage instead of 30 years.
