(9,137 posts)I know many people who have stopped paying long time ago various debts, and the legal situations and details vary. In some circles it's a cause for friendly joking if someone his/her credit reference intact. Not few take all credit available on purpose just to blow it, fuck credit reference. Not the kind of people interested in getting a "job" either but are called "socially excluded" by the system. Which is kinda funny because social capital is all they got, mutual support networks of "excluded" instead of any financial capital.
The real goal and issue is IMO not just about students or any other subgroup, but total global liberation of our lives and communities from debt dependence. From capitalism and money as-we-know-them. Resistance can take many forms and various tactics and alternatives can be tried and developed, but it all boils down to people losing faith in the system and waking up from money-hypnosis. Getting informed.
