    The money I spent on my education could have bought the roof, a ton of bootstraps to pull up, but probably not the electricity. :(

        Banks would fucking love this. They would be salivating at the idea that home loans can’t be discharged via bankruptcy.

          That was made the case because you can’t repossess an education (yet). I don’t necessarily agree with it but I also don’t actually have a problem with banks not being allowed to seize private homes within certain limitations.

            Make sure nobody gives them the idea that giving someone a lobotomy or ECT may be the equivalent of repossessing someone’s “knowledge”. The bastard politicians might actually do it!
