Set aside your opinions on whether college should be free, whether the government should provide any assistance at all, or your views on college at all. Currently, student loans cannot be discharged in bankruptcy. You can get rid of credit card debt and other types of debt, but you are forever stuck with student loans until you pay them off. Given that more and more are going into default on their loans and that the debt itself is massive, ought we allow student loans to be discharged in bankruptcy?
