I do all the time. And I usually get down voted for it.
The student loan scam is designed to create indentured servitude that is intentionally inflicted on society's most naive. Student loans are a crime against youths that needs to stop now. More importantly, blaming and punishing our children because they were victimized by this scam is not the way to redress the situation.
The general counter argument is that even if this was fraudulent, the taxpayer shouldn't be forced to bear this cost. On that we all agree. However, blaming the students is equally bad. The schools, banks and politicians that benefited from the scam should be required to repay these loans out of their own pockets.
outside of an exceedingly select few, everyone is an adult when they attend college.
If your first adult decision in life is to take out 6 figures of debt for an East Asian literature degree, that's on you. Maybe you should have spent a gap year thinking about how your Starbucks job is going to repay that.
At some point we stop infantilizing these retards and just treat them as the adults they are.

Exactly! Stop blaming the victims and start punishing the actual criminals!
