Eaves, I’m with you. But why should the debt be nondischargeable. If you go to say a school for cobblers and you sign up for big loans based on the lies of the school, and there aren’t really any cobbling positions, how is it just to say, well, student, you’re dumb, so, pay up forever.
On the other hand, saddling a couple classes with crippling lifetime debt loads will send a strong market signal to future students that education is a scam.
But so will acfew thousand successful lawsuits againts law schools.
The system is rife with lies. It seems reasonable to me that a potential student should be able to rely on a law school brochures employment statistics. And I’m a pretty cynical bastard. But there should be no lying there. People are investingbyears of life and hundreds of thousands in debt. It’s a pretty material misrepresentation as they go.
The correct move is to go down swinging by establishing extraordinary credit prior to school, getting unsecured credit in the hundreds of thousands in credit cards. Then going solo, in massive debt, making payments on the loans but seining for the fences in your own practice.
I am willing to change my mind.
Personal resp. And due diligence… After a lifetime of lies from the educational system?
