You can't "adult" your way out of fiat money consequences. Minimum wage in 1964 was $22/hour. Don't remember that? That's because the $1.25 in five silver quarters would have a melt value of $22 today.
The average eighteen year old high school graduate signed up for debt under completely false pretenses. I know several tech graduates who were told they were going to be making $$$ and then couldn't get a job in the field thanks to floods of H1B cheepee hires.
I know it's fun and cute to laugh at people younger who are further away from the gold standard switch having to make far less money go further. I think we ought to be calling out the college scam for what it is, the Federal Reserve for what it is, and calling giving kids who can't hardly balance a checkbook a lifetime of crippling debt what it is--criminal.

Exactly! It's all a criminal conspiracy and people are laughing at its victims!
