Surely there are plenty of potential mechanisms to discourage perpetual grad student-ism by just limiting the contracts and number of years one can be paid to work at a given institution, rather than paying so poorly that the rest of society has to pick up the tab. Particularly for an institution with tens of billions of dollars in the bank and other employees with multi-million dollar salaries.

Lofts, hostels or something less expensive (maybe live in Dorchester instead of Cambridge/Somerville?) would make more sense.
