True. But those loans are, at the end of the day, government backed against default.

They have the added “bonus” of not being able to be wiped away in bankruptcy either.

The kids are getting screwed and congress is helping lending institutions do it.

They can always *choose* to avoid the risks and not go to college.

Student loans are also the only loans that can result in garnishment of pay *without* a court order.
