It sounds like you're mad that you voluntarily took someone else's money and are expected to repay it? Of course, if you take a loan, you'll have to make future financial plans to budget less for frivolous expenditures

Doesn't sound like that to me if you look at what they're responding to.

I think you may be trying to make/respond to an ideological argument that I don't think that post is making.

I'm not mad about anything, or arguing policy about student loans. I'm just stating a fact - spending will decrease when people have less cash to spend. Why is that controversial?
