    Holy shit!! I won the birth lottery be being born in Norway, and I watch Last week tonight with John Oliver weekly, read the news about what’s happening around the world, to be informed, listen to Behind the Bastards, Lemmy, local news etc., so I feel pretty informed. However, 440% increase? And the other commentary who’s paid for 10 years with no decrease - what in the actual fuck???

    There are SO many property owners who could not keep their house with a 5% increase on their house loan (article from COVID years), and I remember reading about people going to the news complaining that they had to cancel one of their streaming services, and others who maybe had to sell ONE of their two cabins.

    450%‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽ Why have people not revolted? How can you still be complacent? I’m so sorry to hear about this happening.

        will Have and will again kill us.

        Our cops are fucking blood thirsty. If you listen to ex cops talk about their time in the force its us vs them constantly over and over again.

      Same. Born in Belgium and I had to pay less than 1000 € for a full academic year at the University. The quality of education is good. I got a decent job, correctly paid. I did not had any debt when I started my career. What more did you get in the USA ? I would be depressed as hell to be in the shoes of that guy who claimed above that he paid only the interests of his student debt, after ten years of reimbursement.
