1) The game has been rigged since the beginning and the unis have been the biggest beneficiaries and the most malignant actors. You don't think they knew damn well what they were doing by charging $100k+ in tuition for an English degree to an 18 year with no hope of paying back the loans used to pay the tuition?
2) The universities have already gorged themselves at the greed-pig trough. How is it you think they can afford to pay all those $100k+ salaries to liberal arts profs, have a 1:1 ratio of admins to students, and pay their chancellors and presidents $500k+? All of it is funded by indebting students to the tune of $10s or $100s of thousands while granting useless degrees.
Let them suffocate under the weight of their sins. They are the worst actors in the entire ecosystem. Worse than the naive student borrows. Worse than the predatory lenders. Worse than the traitorous legislators. Why? Because they know they're in a position of trust. They wrap themselves in the clothing of the teacher and the philosopher while picking the pockets of naive teenagers who were told they're following the path to prosperity.
