The cartoon will be funny after this shit passes.

It's funny now cause thats how it is/ was and theres nothing us normal people can do.

'Normal' people can stop going into frigging debt all the time to pay for luxuries and holidays.

Well said...I'm suffering now because of idiots who've borrowed far too much money despite my only debt being my student loan.

Maybe you shouldn't have taken out a student loan?

You shouldn't act so high and mighty as if you are smarter than all those people who were "hoodwinked" essentially by companies promising amazing rates and deals.

Your arrogance blinds you Master Jaden.

But are normal people or any people for that matter really in debt, seeing as the banks lent them money which doesn´t actually exist in the first place, just numbers on some monitors, no gold bars were humped about.

Excellent cartoon, says a lot🙂

But it did exist- that's the way money works, it doesn't have to be physical, it is propelled by belief in tis value.

By agreeing to take the loan, the people were agreeing to owe the bank money. No-one forced them.

no one forced them?..lol.. you are not married are u boss dude?

You are absolutely right, but tell me, why should the government force them to pay it back? On the same note no one forced the bank to lend the money.

I like that but I feel an ouch coming on..lol..

binding contractual agreements

I have no idea what his case is all about. However, I'm about to pay off my wife's student loan. We had no problems and it was really really awesome doing business with them. NO problems: they gave us random rate reductions for paying on tim, When we over paid by $1000 (on purpose), they gave a 12 month break off the loan, we could always pay online, and they were very prompt in sending us our tax documents.

So Jaden must have gotten into business with some real dicks.

ahh this was the thread...umm what I said in the other thread? ahh who cares Im starting to see double keyboards...almost naptime...but about tax documents I no longer receive mine from direct wtf?...oh well..Im on unemployment they might get $10 next month..lol

Totallly irrelevant- as said, it's a simple contractual agreement. Your comment imples that people should just be able to take free money from banks, which frankly makes banking a somewhat less than desierable sector.
