      I think it’s really worth noting that in the end, the most egregious abuse is the usury. Having to pay multiple values of the principle is the trap most people fall into.

      Hey, Y’all Qaeda. Why aren’t you focused on that sin against Gaaaaaaawd?

        Interest on student loans is crazy to begin with

        If I go to college and get a better job, then the country is already benefitting from a larger tax base from me having a better job than I would otherwise.

        So not only am I getting taxed on a larger tax base, but I’m also paying interest on a loan to get the better job lol

        I’m getting hit twice
