I didnt pay it off by killing myself. Protestant work ethic had NOTHING to do with it.
Paid it off because the Eugenicism that disabled 4 of my partners who were forced to medically retire and I was flooded with patients.
That is so fucked up and disturbing and I am not okay with it.
Abolish student debt.
Protect workers. aka you know, human beings.
Protect those unable to work.
Be a decent fucking person.
@hannu_ikonen That's...mildly traumatizing, and I mean that very literally. You got a 'reward' (something you wanted!) via basically accidentally profiting (through no desire or plans of your own) due to harm of others, because of a terribly rigged and fucked up system.
That just seems..yikes.
Look, I'm (genuinely!) very happy for you paying it off, and having that hurdle in the past. It's just...that's got to be a lot of kind of emotional overhead.
