These threads usually devolve into "personal responsibility" tirades, but they usually ignore the macro issues the whole higher education circle jerk apparatus is causing.

Yep. All I have to say is I am paying back the loans I took out for my education for my second career path, on time and not crying about making the payments or how much they are. I had the opportunity to use the loan process to better my life, I took it and can afford to pay them back because I was smarter than those Liberal Artsy Fartsy idiots who did 0 research into what jobs are out there and pay well enough that you can have a quality work/life balance and pay YOUR Debts.
