all of the pre-approved credit card spam, all of the everybody gets a loan car dealerships, they're not designed to help out the people on the bottom. they're designed to trap people who cannot afford them into things they will eventually miss a payment on (or worse), and the second it happens, here comes the sharks.

but they should be more educated to know better? it's too bad that our education is ran by the same system that is profiteering from our bad loans.

our system is designed for the poor to stay poor and for the rich to get richer, and the people in our government are on board with it.

That's exactly how it works, and the "victims" of those things who blame anything but themselves are fucking stupid and, again, don't deserve financial self-determination.

Worked fine for me, my family, my friends, and almost everyone I met in college.

This is true. All I'm saying is the fault is shared at least equally between the government, and the electorate.

Why are you so obsessed with blaming every possible thing but yourself?

2/4, p good. I'll let you guess which ones. What does that have to do with anything? I guess so you can blame some more shit on circumstances instead of taking responsibility for your life?

Look, I'm not saying shit doesn't happen, I just disagree with the ubiquitous tendency to blame authority, conspiracies, evil corporations, corruption, and the successful for everything bad that happens. I think if our culture were a lot more responsible, our government would be too, because I think our authority is a reflection of our culture (albeit one with low fidelity). Why is that so absurd? Why is our generation pathologically fucking incapable of anything but narcissism and entitlement?

Just play a recording of any one of Ron Paul's idiotic speeches; will save us having to read what you write.
Can't say I've ever had someone mistake me for a libertarian, that really hurts.

Keep writing the way you do and you will probably be hurt many more times unfortunately.
