I collect on student loans, each day I speak with people who are on public assistance with no means or desire to pay their loans. Their comments are laced with contempt and obscenities for the system they depend on to survive.
One borrower told me that all education should be free, when I asked her where the government would get the funds, she said they could "print more money". If I said everything I wanted to say to them I wouldn't last an hour on the job.

You don't even want to hear about the lawyers who owe thousands and laugh and hang up if I do manage to get them on the phone. A legal system run by lawyer politicans makes it nearly impossible to suspend the licenses of lawyers who flatly refuse to pay.
Deadbeat lawyers are as big a problem as dead beat dads, except the lawyers have the means to pay. Shakespear had it right.

Dear God. Someone obviously spent their student load money on dank.

First of all, it is "Shakespeare" not "Shakespear".

Second, you are taking Shakespeare's commentary out of context.

Third, I am paying back my student loans just fine, thank you.

What do you call a law school flunky? A bill collector.

My mother did collections for awhile and she said lawyers and doctors were the worst.
