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?
Lemmy.world kids will never understand the actual world and how it works..

Don't pay your American banks, there is nothing stopping you from doing that.
