No, but we must hold universities accountable for over-estimating the values of the degree programs they offer.
No, we should instead focus on decreasing the cost of education and eventually make it free for everyone
No, it is not required to repay Student Loans, and they should be abolished(NOT the Student Loans themselves, abolish requirement to repay them).
No it is the student's responsibility to manage their financial outcome as well as we should focus on decreasing the cost of education
No, it is the student responsibility to to manage their finances. We should be focusing on lowering the cost of college education.

To an extent, yes. But we should focus on making education more affordable from the get-go, and helping those with outstanding student debt in more ways.
No, but for degrees with a high risk of default there should be a network established to ensure that default does not happen in the first place and penalties should be incurred if network is not established.
No, but college should be subsidized
No. But the minimum wage should be raised and educational costs at universities should be lowered. Also, US citizens should receive a stipend (or welfare) for their level of education while they work paid for by the government on the condition that the business raise their minimum wage to a living wage for the next 10 to 30 years applied to all businesses. US citizens who participate in the program would no longer be qualified for other welfare programs such as unemployment or food stamps given, they'll be paid more and then funds can diverted to people who need who may not be employed.
I think the cost for education should be lowered
students who don't pay their bills should be held accountable unless an institution mis-managed approvals
There should be quality government funded higher education options so that this is not an issue
students should not have to take loans out to go to college.
