        Right so we should ruin their credit scores so it gets harder to rent (yes rental agencies check) or buy a car (even if they get one, their interest rate will be super high). Better we just fuck people over since they can’t afford a house, right?

                You say kids, but you’re talking about people who are mostly mid 20s-40s. Exactly how old are you, geezer?

                    Many people can’t afford to move. When were you born? Just give me a decade. You sound like a Boomer. Born into a fantastic economic situation, ruining it for the future, and then sitting on the sidelines with stupid fucking opinions

              What’s the un-cowardly response to financial oppression by your own government?
