You can wring a dry towel and all you want but never get a drop of water.

These people are by and large broke. It’s likely to cost more in enforcement than they’ll get back.

At least the IRS will continue to lack funding so the rich don’t have to pay .

There are things in the works to shift some of the liability for defaulted student loans back on to the Universities along with some forgiveness programs attached to these. People who can afford to pay them back should, but the universities need to be held accountable for spiraling out of control costs for programs that students often can't pay back because of lack of market demand for skills and over-priced degrees.
