There are ways to start a regional pilot career. Not everyone starts off with a 100k debt with a loan. And since you took a loan, you are responsible for paying it off. You must have known what regional airlines paid before you started? Why do you expect tax payers to bail you out for your decisions?
+1. I paid all my training working as a minimum wage cook. I didn't go to some big 141 school. I'm debt free, and in a better position than most people I know.
