Nice piece. I like the emphasis on the IRS's example.

At some point, do you think you could look into changing the rule that all debtor payments can be applied first to interest? Is there a way to change that? Because, at least with my loans 1) It was not in the loan paperwork that I signed, and 2) It really makes it much more difficult to dig out from under these debts.

So I don't know all the ins and outs about how this rule is applied and what it would take to change it.
