The "debt" part isn't stressed enough.

One of the first things I noticed when I started working in the trades was that most of these "old dog" business owners the first thing they asked me was whether I had a gf or family or not. Most employers want you to be in a situation where you NEED them because you can't miss a single payment of whatever you obligated yourself to. Whenever you go to work with a brand new car, or tell people you just signed a mortgage for a house your employer will be rubbing hands knowing that he has you grabbed by the balls.

Debt makes people slaves. It's not a meme. That's the only reason why the government started giving student loans.
Did you know that you can't give up your citizenship if you owe money to the government? Really makes you think, huh?
