A JD is still a big step up for the sorts of people who get them. Humanities majors as a group don't hit much more than $60k mid-career, and more than half of fresh college graduates are unemployed or working a job that doesn't require a college degree.

College and graduate school loan payments are limited to 10% of discretionary income under Obama's recent programs. So yes, even with the debt.
