The Student Loan Scheme: gateway drug to debt slavery

Information designer Jess Bachman has a new piece out which isn't so much an info-graphic as a graphic article. Jess explains:
It deals with the nightmare that has become student loans. Default rates on student loans are worse than sub-prime mortgages, and the total debt is bigger than all our credit card debts combined. It's a huge issue than many people are keeping quiet about. College students are a hugely under-represented and unadvocated group in Washington, and what we and the government are doing to them is just wrong.Link to the full-sized graphic on CollegeScholarships.org.
