>The worst part is where you turn around and say "well, since we paid for your education (with other people's money of course, but let's forget about that), we now own you

Except I didn't say that.

>So, you think the "poorer country" owns its citizens.

>I consider the idea that the state owns people

How many times do I have to say "I don't believe this" before you stop turning around and telling me that I believe it?

>Did you experience that system? Because I did. It sucked.

Oh believe me, this whole conversation is making me reconsider my opinion.
