Yup, these "protesters" are on the hook now, whether they like it or not. If they fail to pay, a general garnishment will go out against them and will follow them to any/all jobs they take as well as negating any tax returns later in life as the Fed wants it's cut back first.

They made themselves slaves to the Federal Government, not us.

“They made themselves slaves to the Federal Government, not us.”

I guess I have a little more compassion for these kids than most FReepers. Eighteen-year-olds mimic the behavior of their parents and society. And what idea have they basted in since birth? “There are certain things you’re entitled to, whether you can pay for them or not.”

1) Losers go to state colleges. You must get a private Ivy degree to have any chance at decent life. Don’t worry about the cost; borrow the money. Everybody’s in debt.

2) A three-bedroom tract home is for losers. They don’t even build them anymore. Your new home must have at minimum, five bedrooms, a three-car garage, and a media room. It doesn’t matter that you have no hope of ever paying off a million-dollar mortgage. Nobody pays off their mortgage.

3) Cars are forty thousand dollars. Never mind that you don’t have forty thousand dollars; losers drive beaters and you’re no loser. You’re entitled to a nice car. And nobody buys a car outright, anyway.

These protesting college kids are just dancing to the tune we called. Nobody has to pay for anything. Ever.
