The costs in education are not ramped up because of students wanting “lesbian dance therapy”. *rolls eyes*

Our survival on this planet is fucked, and most people don’t care. So let’s start taking advantage of these morons and get ours before we’re extinct. Oh, and don’t have kids.

In a word, freeing.  

Supply and demand.

back in my youth, I had no money. I was just starting out and it seemed like there was more month than money a lot. I kept getting hit with overdraft fees, some because I was stupid with money others because of the reordering of my purchases.
