I'm fhr getting rid of the loan bankruptcy protection.

A friend worked every day for over a year to put his kids through uni. I guess he should've just bought a sports car? Homie gave up his mid life crisis years for his girls. A system that punishes people for making the right choice seems fucky.

I can tell your friend wasn't American. Here you might work every day for a year just to not be homeless. You sure as shit aren't putting your kids through college that way unless you have a job that pays an order of magnitude higher than the mean salary of the nation.

I mean our base pay is good and we have solid overtime policies. I guess I may be mis-using the term uni, but I'm not sure where they were going for classes.
