I have no student loans. ROTC paid for all of my college.
Yet 15 minutes ago I got a call from “Robbie”, clearly a domestic call as he had 100% American accent, to talk about restructuring my federal student loans.
Why is our country so incredibly deceptive and scammy? We’ll never have European-style socialism here and that’s somewhat liveable / something I’ve come to accept, but why must we be cheated at every turn and in every interaction? This is not capitalism as much as it is a predatorial monetary jungle. Reminds me of the quote: “behind every fortune, a crime”.
