Ah yes, back when you were basically guaranteed a high-earning job out the uni door and could pay the loan back in just a few years of working. You mean that being responsible?

Or do you mean responsible as in when the middle-class wasn't being crushed to nothing, almost everyone could afford to buy a home, and a single breadwinner could reasonably provide for a family?
