> And yes, a lot of people are willing to go into debt to effectively pay to have a job.

That's the same _class_ element that OP was talking about, no?

I guess most of the people on HN don't see issue with people going into debt to get a degree, which is supposed to get them a job.

So how is it different to people going into debt to buy a franchise?

It's even a more straightforward way to actually get a job, while a degree, if it goes out of fashion on the job market, would have absolutely no use, and you'll have to flip the same burgers as the lad with no degree and no student debt.
