The fact that we have to look at education from the perspective of whether or not we can find a job contributing to the coffers of rich executives is remarkably warped.

Education should be done for educations sake. Actual bullshit degrees come from universities seeking profit over education and even if you removed government loans from the equation they would still exist.

The idea that everything would somehow be fixed if loans were removed is a delusional one as long as there is a profit motivation for universities. Because it's easy to create McDegrees and sell them.
