Interesting theory

All pilots who have funded there licence through student loan could not possibly have the work ethic to be a valuable asset to you operation?

That theory is almost as stupid as the student loan scam itself. Just because you borrowed the money interest free does not mean you have less of a work ethic than the guy who funded it himself.

Why would I work my ass off for 5 years in a job I do not enjoy (and pay my taxes which go towards other students learning to fly on an interest free loans) to save enough money to complete my CPL when I could borrow the money interest free, complete my licence, get into the industry, and work my ass off doing what I enjoy?

Don’t get me wrong. The student loan scam is a joke and I do not agree with it. But why would you delay your start in the industry by not taking advantage of interest free money while others do?
