what happened to the free market economy? the incentive structure is fucked. As a person who worked my ass off this decade, it is unfair :(

Free market needs to be allowed to fail, so bring back student loan bankruptcies and watch the problem mostly fix itself.

Anyway, you could get loans paid off if you worked public sector, but you usually come out ahead working private sector in the same field.
