But at least it isn't Africa.
First, lol at the Africa comment. So, so terrible but still so, so funny.

Second, I agree. We raise our children so they can stay in debt for the rest of their lives to support a system that hates them. But then, its never been about making AMERICA proper prosperous, just corporate America. I've rethought my views on college and I say I am GLAD I'm not in one anymore. I no longer will have to pay off loans for the rest of my life so that I can struggle for years to find a halfway decent job. I'm also never ever going to own a credit card or a house, and if I buy a car it's gonna be old, used, and bought with cash straight up. Just a few more ways to never be in debt.
