They weren't arrested for not paying but for not showing up for Court (which is still wrong).
I'm assuming you are trolling, and not this stupid.

Then that means they aren't loans.
It's just free cash.

I am glad you have a trust fund to live off of. If you had to go into business, you'd starve to death.

well who would you suggest we get to handle it? The IRS? A judge?
uhm, yes, a judge. this is contract law. not criminal. garnish, attach, execute, levy, FiFa, etc. But you don't lose your bodily freedom over a debt in this country.

It would be nice if this was reality, but some people simply cannot. Their degrees don't generate enough job income to pay them back. So, maybe we don't need blanket forgiveness, but we certainly need to correlate what is paid back with what the person earns.

One reason tuition is so high is the availability of student loans. There's no pressure on a college to reduce costs because of the student loan program.
I just knew if you persevered, you would something that was economically and morally sound.

This is ludicrous and you know it.

Go full on Dave Ramsey and deliver pizzas at night to cover your loan debt. There's always a way.

The government asks debtors to pay their loans or provide financial information, and if those requests go unanswered, a court orders the debtors to appear before magistrate judges with the information.
That sounds perfectly reasonable to me. Either pay your student loans or provide financial information showing that you can't afford to pay. If a person can afford to pay, then they should; allowing someone to just default on something they agreed to pay just because makes absolutely no sense.

Person that took out the loan should have correlated that a liberal arts degree wasn't going to be able to payback that loan without working like a madman.

That's reasonable - if they truly cannot pay, then forgive the debt. If they can pay, they should.
I'm not stupid (as someone said). I have a degree and I made good grades. I also pay my bills. I've never had a loan, but I do pay my two credit cards every month. I'm a responsible person, but I also have compassion.

Pretty sure you have to meet certain 'requirements'

I don't necessarily disagree with you. People signed up for degrees that had low job value at schools with expensive tuition. But, that is problem society should have addressed before these students enroll.
The bottom line is that we have a huge student loan debt problem and the debt collection bureaucracy isn't making the situation better. Nothing gets solved.

there are already options for this.
they will base your monthly loan payback payments on your income and your bills. So it is a reasonable way to pay back your loans without going into the red.
next excuse.

Yes, it is reasonable. If you can't pay a private debt, eventually it goes away because of the statutes of limitations. Student loans just keep on going apparently, since this guy had a 1985 loan.
Someone making $40k a year who has $100k in student loan debt is never going to pay that debt off. $40k is barely enough to live on. Forgive all or part of it and then move one (e.g. in my example, make him pay $100 a month for ten years).

I agree. Gender Studies should not be allowed as a major. Society has failed these kids by allowing them to be coddled.
