This is easier to resolve than people think.

Step 1: allow students to declare bankruptcy on their loans after a period of time if they don’t have employment capable of repaying those loans.

Step 2: claw the money back from the colleges and universities who used those students as conduits for loan money without educating them well enough to obtain loan-paying jobs.

Stick it to the overwhelmingly-liberal educational-industrial complex. They deserve it.

Another scary thing rarely mentioned is the existence of SLABS (student loan asset-backed securities), which risk a replay of the mortgage securitization mess of the previous decade. Those instruments really never should have been permitted, but, it’s too late now.

I hope to have gone fully Galt by the time this next bubble explodes and the U.S. taxpayer is on the hook with a bill for all these little shithead Social Justice Warriors to attend college and propel them towards positions in the self-felating government/healthcare/academia industries.

Pay off your f***ing debt by picking fruit for the rest of your worthless lives, or pimp yourselves out on some sugar daddy website, because I absolutely refuse to pay for your lifestyle when as a young man I beat my brains out, pounding railroad spikes by hand on the track gang, and shovelling coal into a steam locomotive's firebox all day in the 103° August heat... just so I could put MYSELF through engineering school.

And all Hillary has to do is utter the word “forgiveness” to ensure her electoral victory and a massive new wave of government employees.
