I get the theory here, you can’t repossess an experience or degree. On the other hand you can’t repossess a meal, a vacation or a transplanted kidney either.

Student loan debt should definitely be dischargeable, especially for senior citizens and anybody on a fixed income that’s unlikely to ever change.

I do think there needs to be a reasonable limit on how soon after completion of the degree/schooling it is possible to discharge the debt through bankruptcy, but I agree that the current system is equally untenable.
