A suggestion how to write that same comment, but make it sound much more positive while inquiring about the future:

It is great!! Is there anything planned how to deal with new debt being immediately acrued by current students, or is this just a temporary fix?

Seriously, we need to teach ourselves to not immediately doubt everything with "but what about". We need to acknowledge positive news first, then ask how to improve things. For our own mental health.
