Solution: making student loan dischargeable in bankruptcy again.

Guess what?  Obama did that, along with Congress.

That's what backing student debt does along with making it non-dischargeable in bankruptcy.

Nobody would loan someone like this $500,000 to study such a "program" if they could file bankruptcy and get out from under it.  Nor would they do so if they bore the risk of loss if the income wasn't sufficient to cover it.  Therefore the cost wouldn't be that high as nobody could pay it.

Both Congress and Obama, who federalized student loans, should be held fully accountable, criminally and civilly, for this scam.  Each and every one of them.  They should all be indicted, tried, convicted, locked up in prison for the rest of their natural lives and their carcasses fed to vultures when they pass.

This is not the fault of anyone other than Congress and the former President.  Trump has done exactly nothing to reverse President Obama's nonsense in this regard, so add him to the list of people who deserve to be indicted, tried, convicted, locked up and eaten by buzzards when he expires in prison. 

There is no solution to this other than to at least reverse those policies -- whether you actually lock up people or not.  Any attempt to steal said funds from the taxpayer should be met with an instant revolt by any means necessary.  The public did not consent to this scam and must not be charged for it.

No person who was not personally involved in passing this garbage has any obligation to pay and has every right to resist and refuse doing so by whatever means are necessary.

Do I feel sorry for the people, like this woman, who have accumulated this debt?  Not really.  They were adults -- young adults, but adults.  Being starry-eyed is a human right.  So is bearing the consequences for doing so.  But there is a reason the Constitution mandates uniform bankruptcy laws across the US, and as a result this is a Congressional problem, it is their responsibility even though it is the individual borrower's fault, and we must hold the 535 who infest Washington DC to account -- and force them to resolve this garbage.

Oh, by the way, doing so will also immediately cause the cost of college to drop like a stone.
