It's so stupid and shortsighted to create these huge financial barriers that make it incredibly difficult for people to afford a higher education. Educated citizens create better lives for everyone.

But then where will the rich people get tears for their martinis?

That's a feature of society, not a defect

Thanks to my parents, I was free of undergraduate student loans, so I thought taking on student loans for my master's degree wouldn't be the worst decision. I enrolled in a program at the London School of Economics and Political Science as an international student.

Yeah, I don't think "the rich" are on the hook for this person's debt
