Wait a moment...
I've heard a TON of stories, but it's kinda hard to understand, that this is real...

Americans do ACTUALLY take on loans to go to school?

@LukeAlmighty it's one of the greatest & most lucrative forms of usury in the modern age, making (most) youth debt slaves to the system until the end of their lives. Just American things...

@RehnSturm256
I do get some good old usery, but this scheme is so crazy, it's truly hart to immagine a situation, where a person would take such a loan.

@LukeAlmighty they get you when you're most vulnerable: when you're young, and design a system where you "need" the degree for even many basic jobs. Barely 17/18 yo and bright eyed youth without any direction in the world are enslaved to thousands in debt. You don't even want to dig into this lore. It gets worse the more you realize. Like, how people are becoming such slaves for life with tangibly useless degree studies, but the paper they get from graduating is all that matters in getting a desk jockey job or teaching job which continues the cycle.

What? You thought America being an empire of the anti-christ was a meme? :nep_smug2:

No, but this might be my first unironic use of "Let's just kill the jews already"
