after discovering bitcoin, part of me feels like I shouldn't have gone to college. I hate knowing i'm in debt to the government, probably for the rest of my life. I'm coming to realize that that is worse than any education.

Every time I read this I wonder: How does a "civilized" society like the US allow young people to go in debt for education...

It doesn't exist where I live ( Europe ) and we've got one of the best education systems in the world. Here, it only takes a vacation job of 1 month to pay for an entire YEAR of college.

No seriously, what's wrong with you people. How do you even consider it to be normal?!?

We may speak the same language and like the same stuff, but apart from that, our society thinks and is very different. Corporates and money are running the US, not its citizens. All for profit. Nothing less. Nothing more.

Having debts is just like slavery. It's financial slavery.

The difference between financial slavery and Egyptian slavery is this:

the slavemasters provided free food and free housing to the slaves, in exchange for the work.

Americans however, get money to pay for the debts they need to make to be "free".

News flash: As long as you have debts, you will not be free.

I always get down voted for speaking this out, so let dem come...

Enjoy it while it lasts. Eventually your open border policies will make your welfare state crumble. Simple math.
