This is alot like blaming the patient for getting addicted to opioids.
This nation indoctrinates the youth into believing that they are worthless bums if they don't go to college. So when they walk into the door, barely an "adult" by any stretch of the word, we put a piece of paper in front of them and say, "Sign this, or you will never get the degree you need, never get the job you need, and die cold and lonely."
So they sign that paper, unaware that the loan they incurred at the beginning of their adult life will follow them for the rest of their lives. And if the degree fails to bring in the job they were promised, tough luck. And if the Department of Education decides not to forgive their student loans after years of service to a government job or non profit, them's the brakes.
