There is a large societal movement to erase personal accountability.

Also, the schools *tricked* them into taking out those loans

In some cases that’s true. A lot of for-profit schools offer worthless degrees

much as CB'ers deride it, there is a societal benefit to incentivizing public service

It still does not justify going into 10's of thousand of dollars in debt for a bachelors degree...

Sounds very unlikely this kid will be willing to work for VA money.

StalwartBraveTrue

Yeah, he is a PCP and our 3 years in residency will count towards the 10 years
