It's not just the crippling debt, it's the exploitative aspect of it, is morally in no way different than indentured servitude. 17-18 year olds have no meaningful understanding of the consequences of these debt contracts.
- bobby_9x 11y agoI think of college as an investment. I wouldn't take a business loan out on an idea that had little to no hope of making money and college students shouldn't major in a degree that has no chance of monitary success. It's all about risk/reward and trying to reduce your personal risk as much as possible. I would hardly call it ’indentured servitude’. Everyone has a choice. There needs to be more personal responsibility.

- tamana 11y agoYes, children need to be taught personal responsibility. BEFORE they are talked into impossibly expensive loans sold via lies.
