So its very quite possible to be "taken" while still naive and impressionable to want to "do good".

I agree! Can we say FIRST GENERATION college students. 

PLUS.... These were people TRYING to BETTER themselves and their families! 

How can you blame people who don't know what their options are? 

How can you blame people that were LIED to by the admission staff? 

The college was being PREDATORY!

The kids are saying well the 28k HAS got to be much better then the 4k. That is where these For Profits are getting kids to enroll and get this large amount of debt. They think the more they spend on education the better it is.
Maybe I'm too cynical, but which day (as opposed to today) did kids (legal adults in this context) ever not think that "more expensive something is the more valuable it is"?? BTW, the overwhelming demographic of for-profit enrollments are not 18-23 "kids", but straight up adults; often parents.
