I mean, not really? They don't have to make 10 years worth of student loan payments, so they have a lot more disposable income during the early years of their career when they can invest it and it can really pay off decades later.
In this scenario, they earned that privilege by being a high achiever. But it's a silly, very specific argument.
I do think, since our government has no problem spending ridiculous sums of money, that increasing the incentive post 10 years of government service to include other non-student loan funds (retirement, 529, etc) could be a good idea to keep workers around.
