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.
Lol that’s why we are in this situation. 99% of the people complaining are gonna go home, order doordash, watch netflix, do nothing, and cry when the world doesn’t magically conform to their expectations.

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.

The government is made up of people we voted for. Want to check voter turn out rates for democrats? And for people under 40? Go check. Do it!
More of this. It’s time for mass protests instead of complaining and then working a 9 to 5 and browsing Instagram.

You want change? Do something.
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
Leave. The. Country.
I’m so glad you’re willing to sponsor people who want to leave the US, when can I expect the check?
Read my other comments on it. You can get well more then enough to move from the gov (unemployment/food stamps/etc)
