That's not what I said. There's no coercion, and there are many ways to pay for education if you're proactive about it. And people who take large student loans are rarely the sorts of people who have made extraordinarily rational choices about their schooling to begin with, in my experience.

And above all that, not expecting to be poor if you do make the choice to pursue your particular interests at great cost ... that's delusional.
