As resumption of educational debt repayment looms, more than 7 in 10 borrowers say they are taking on extra work, while half say they don't know whether they'll be able to make payments come October.
Today’s phrase is “garnish your wages.” If their protest doesn’t involve moving to another country it’s not going to happen. I’ve thought about it too, but my contingency,for that definitely involves moving to Scandinavia.
Ah bullshit. Civil rights weren’t achieved by threatening to leave and not be the oppressor’s problem anymore, they were achieved by standing ones ground damned the consequences. No one wants to be a martyr, but that’s how battles are unfortunately won, especially against today’s brand of fascists.
That’s partly why it’s so worrisome. 10 years ago, it would have meant something, but now it’s too late, and I fear now it will only negatively contribute to climate collapse and cause the genocide we hope to avoid.
I think it might be too late to save the country and we all ought to get several state governments to secede… and if a civil war brews because of that, then it would at least have some semblance of a positive outcome.
Ppl need to know that student loans (federal or private) and medical related debts don’t impact your credit scores nearly as much as say private loans, mortgage, auto loan, etc.
Right so we should ruin their credit scores so it gets harder to rent (yes rental agencies check) or buy a car (even if they get one, their interest rate will be super high). Better we just fuck people over since they can’t afford a house, right?
I think this is an example of what people say in surveys being drastically different than what they’ll do in reality.

Can’t garnish imaginary wages [̲̅$̲̅(̲̅ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°̲̅)̲̅$̲̅]
Then people will just take their checks through an LLC and be independent contractors. Or go into business for themselves. Or just revolt.
The last one is the most worrisome.
The last one is the one we need the most.

More of this. It’s time for mass protests instead of complaining and then working a 9 to 5 and browsing Instagram.

Fucking exactly.
The US government: let’s enable the economy to get to the point where it’s basically impossible for young people to even participate in society.
Also the US government: damn, why do people keep going on suicidal mass shootings? If only there was anything we could do about it.
Exactly

People who want to buy a house…
Most of them are never going to be able to afford a house.
Can’t even rent without a credit score a lot of the time

You’re a coward for even thinking that is a real option for most people.
What’s the un-cowardly response to financial oppression by your own government?

I think you underestimate how many people simply can’t pay their loans at all
