I've made no comment about medical bills or people who legitimately lack the money, who have other legal protection. I'm talking about people who rack up debt and try to escape the consequences just because it is advantageous to themselves to do so. I personally know more of them than I care to. I apologize if the wording implied this was "most cases" of debt in general.
- sillysaurus3 9y agoI wasn't calling you out. It was just a different perspective, mostly for readers' benefit. There are many people who feel that the poor are poor because they are incompetent or malicious, rather than because it's a self-sustaining cycle. It's a good reminder to write less pointedly, though. If you have any tips on writing style or favorite authors, I'd love to hear them.
- TallGuyShort 9y agoYou yourself pointed out a way in which my own post could have been written less pointedly, so I'm probably not the one to be giving tips :)
