Inordinately Right
Your point is a semantical --"us" and 'you"-- in the context of debt repayment.
No it isn't.
I said people should pay back what they borrow and your response was 'but the government doesn't'. You didn't present an argument, you presented a deflection in the form of a tu quoque fallacy.

Debt expands faster than the economy can repay bc of compound interest. eventually you get a crash.

So this is why its important to forgive debts

Wrong.
Creditors have no guarantee they will be paid back. They arguably have more risk and less reward than the debtor.
They do no work, they make money in their sleep, and debts take up a higher and higher portion of workers incomes bc creditors lend more and more money.

Marxism is a logical extension of this thinking which is shareholders do no work and yet recieve money

Free markets is an economy free from these things
