    Your country damaged it’s economy by doing that.

    You probably have college educated citizens who can work less the older they get because of the higher income they earned getting out of college. This means they’re less productive than the college educated Americans whose extra income is siphoned away through the interest from their loans, keeping them perpetually on the edge of poverty, and thus at peak productivity.

      Oh no, not the economy!

      Also your whole argument is that older people aren’t being held at gunpoint, and younger people are having to do more work to earn far less than they did.

      Your argument is that we should starve the dogs to keep them obedient.

      Fuck right off

      I’m guessing this is sarcasm, but it’s uncomfortably close to how actual neoliberals think

        I’m absolutely certain that there way student loans were set up in the US was a concerted effort by the ruling class to keep the working people who went to college from accumulating wealth for themselves.
