Let’s get this straight.

Girlie takes out a loan with no guarantee of career that would provide means for repayment.

Girlie can’t afford the payments.

And it’s someone’s fault who’s not Girlie?

For the love of God, someone, be a grown-up, please. STAND UP AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS. No one held a gun to her head and forced her to take out the loans.

It’s called being smart..

When I graduated with my B.A. I only had about $15,000 total debt. I went to community college for the first few years and then finished at a university. Also worked at least part-time and my parents let me live at home for periods of time. Sure I took some grief socially. But this all saved me a BOATLOAD of cash. 10s of thousands of dollars. Now the loan im paying back today is cheaper than a car payment while most of my former classmates are drowning in debt.

Well, let's get this straight too: bank pays out unsecured loans to kids with lousy credit in order to finance worthless degrees. Why would that happen in a capitalist society? Because banks and government collude to run these worthless paper mills to keep each other employed with the taxpayer left to back the loans.

Government funding and mandates devalued higher ed, made it a "right," and hence made it worthless - well, expensive and worthless.
