25 years old and deep in debt

[Valmy]

What, you don't like chil--oh.

Maybe not as much as that guy

[Caliga]

I think it's fair to say that he loved them.

[garbon]

So fuck him and he deserves to be a debt slave, right?

Actions have consequences.

[Ideologue]

An 18 year old has no business being put in a position where they can sign up for non-dischargeable debt for a good that has severe, undisclosed deficiencies.

Hell, no one does, but least of all what is almost legally a child.

[garbon]

Why? An 18 year old has the right to give themselves lung cancer and kill/die for their country in most parts of the US, so why not crushing debt?

[Maximus]

Maybe he put

"P.S. I like cats"

at the bottom of his resume, like a guy I interviewed once who creeped me the fuck out.

The fuck?

Probably not

Like Doogie said, it's like a mortgage and they forgot to give him a house.  But that's not quite correct, because you can BK your note if it's too big.

Joining the military provides unambiguously positive things, like a wage, veteran's preference, and the ability to kill.  Also, it only lasts four years.  Maybe less!

I like cats.

[Admiral Yi]

That's a nasty case of the hiccups Wigger.

Because it's bad for society to destroy the economic possibilities and quality of life of broad swathes of the population.

What's next? Are you going to suggest that because an 18 year old has the right to give themselves lung cancer, to join the armed forces, and to contract life-crushing debt, 18-year olds should also have the right to sell themselves into slavery, or carve out their organs and sell them on the open market?

What ever do you mean?

What, you dont believe in the power of the free market to efficiently allocate resources!




j/k  just in case your sarcasm detector isnt working too.  There is a lot of that going around these days.

That's the age when their organs have their peak market value, Jake.  C'mon, use your noodle.

No, we should probably draw some boundaries.
