Debt

**musical mood preference: CREAM - Tales of Brave Ulysses**

I'm more and more convinced that America is a disparagement in terms of economic inequality. We're in league with Namibia and South Africa when it comes to disparity of wealth distribution. The rich continue to get richer while the poor continue to live in relative squalor. It's disheartening for a person who wants to improve himself to know that the chances of coming upon wealth in any substance are nearly non-existent.

At age 20, thanks entirely student loans, I have already accrued a debt of well over $15,000, with no end of the madness in sight. It is because of this that I will avoid creditors and credit cards as long and as often as possible in my future. I believe that credit is a veritable Satan in modern society, with interest rates controlled by the ever swirling inflation rates controlled by the ever swirling gas prices, controlled by the ever swirling crisis in the Middle East.

So, piss on credit.
