> Who are you to say it's useless? Such hubris. They do it because they've been led to believe it's necessary, and in some cases it actually is. Kind of hard to become a doctor or lawyer without a degree. Even if that weren't the case, that doesn't absolve the people who take advantage of them. Victims of fraud are acting voluntarily, but that doesn't make it OK to defraud someone else. That's why I wrote 'useless'. By that I mean degrees without real job prospects. > You can't even know others' motives, and yet you choose to assume the worst possible ones. That says more about you than them. I'm not judging anybody. I know people who took 30k loans without needing them just to pay for a new car, new computer and other non-necessities. They were studying art at a community college. There are many people like that. That's entirely their fault and their debt to pay.
