Alright try this: By creating a government sanctioned and backed system of educational finance, the government has allowed universities to inflate their pricing without any consequences. The system is rigged to encourage 18 year olds (who are only allowed to vote because they can be drafted), to take on massive amounts of permanent debt in hopes of obtaining a job that now requires an overpriced piece of paper when really all that was needed was an in depth interview. I think Duh is pretty appropriate myself.

So what's the fix? My situation is way different. I had to work but the bulk was paid for. How do we improve this?

Honestly? Violence most likely. I'm reminded of a quote by my favorite of the founding fathers:
"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." - Thomas Jefferson
He had balls like fucking grapefruits.
