This is no more than a one sided hit piece designed to garner support to pay all outstanding student loans. If you make a decision, without getting proper advice, to take out a loan for a degree like Gender Studies or Social Working and then cannot get work to pay for it, then that is your problem. What next - payback all the doctors and lawyers and engineers who did pay off their loans? By all means fix up the loans - they are far too easy to get for a degree that will not provide many with paid employment. But this is a one sided doco that is not a real or true examination of all the issues and views on the matter.

Honestly Shocking. Student Loans have truly become the normal way of life for higher education and before seeing this documentary I didn't give much attention to it. Now I see there is MASSIVE problem that cannot be left untouched, and the government sure ain't gonna fix it.

It was an okay documentary. I have a hard time garnering sympathy for a gentleman who put himself 100k in debt, played 3 sports, didn't work through college, and then is singing the blues about being in so much debt they couldn't take a honeymoon because he couldn't afford it on a teachers salary.

Where's the responsibility of the borrower to know a sociology degree will more than likely not get you a lucrative job to fulfill your obligations?

Even way less sympathy for the orthodontist and his wife who put themselves a million dollars into debt because he more than likely will be able to pay his debt back several times over.

I guess what I'm saying is these lenders are predatory but the borrower also bears some responsibility as well.
