I think taxpayers have an interest in whether their tax dollars are getting thrown into a hole, and that the government should avoid loans that will predictably lead to losses with no offsetting social benefits. If you want to counter by calling them selfish for doing so, you're free to see how that works out for your side at the ballet box, I guess. I would guess that most people do not see English literature majors as holding together the fabric of society in the same way as access to housing or food does.
