We all know about loans, students loans, etc. No one forced us to sign the contract when we borrowed the money. Most who signed were hoping to skip out on it anyway in my opinion. We are all mostly the same way; we want what we think we have coming and will argue to no end to get it but we'll also argue to no end to get out of repaying, etc. So what if the government is screwing us around; we elect the idiots who are screwing us! Yeah, I got a free education, the best money could buy, compliments of the military which I agreed to serve for "x" amount of years. Experience has shown that those who don't repay, or try and find excuses for not repaying are also the ones who will screw someone else if given the chance. Yet, they always have money for a new/used car, rent, food and entertaining, etc. Agree or don't but I feel, don't repay your student loan, go to prison. A few start getting sentenced to the monkey house and see how quick the money starts flowing in! Yeah that's harsh and it won't happen (except in the military; they send you to college and if you don't fulfil your obligation unless you have extenuating circumstances, dishonorable discharge and prison) in which event you still have to repay it once you get out of prison! Your credit is ruined, etc. and in this day and age, most companies run a credit and criminal history check before hiring you! You're screwed and not by the government! You did it to yourself. No, I'm not high and mighty, rightous and goody two shoes. Just a different up bringing where your word is good and you honor what you said you would instead of blaming others or trying to find a way out of it.

Beckerson's right: this is an old but recurring topic. Bottom line: self-righteous *beep* about evil American governmental imperialists and evil capitalists(Trump, or well, pick your villain) doesn't hide the fact that not paying your debts, any kind of debt, is fraud, pure & simple. For the record, I'd put credit card executives against a wall(along w/Marxist university profs), if it were up to me. But it isn't. Pay your P & I : you agreed to do so on the dotted line.
