With the number of people sounding the alarm on the student loan system in recent years, you have to wonder how many of these people are actually college material. This issue has reached well beyond the blogosphere at this point; I've seen numerous stories about it on the MSM. The MSM pretty regularly shows stories about people heavily in non-dischargeable debt who cannot find work, cannot file BK, and have absolutely no hope of ever recovering financially. You also have to wonder how much of an increase there has been in older people going back to school because they cannot find work (and how many of them applied to school after being denied disability benefits). Student loans and disability - the new unemployment compensation.
