The government is who has screwed you over. By offering student loans, the govt (perhaps accidentally) inflated the cost of college to insane levels. Continuing the flawed system is not accidental, because having a generation in lifelong debt is convenient to those who control wealth. But I doubt it's your parents who are to blame. It's yet another failure of our government to look out for the best interests of its citizens because it gets swayed by greed.
