I'm torn on this issue. Of course, personal responsibility should be a primary focus, but there are systemic problems with the student loan issue, and the government, banks and schools should shoulder their respective share of the blame.

Agreed. It's not a black and white issue.

I'd say a good argument could be made that the loans are predatory.

Not to mention the fact that you can not default on student loans.. you can't declare bankruptcy.. you are on the hook no matter what. That's a uniquely shitty situation.
