There's your problem. Don't shackle yourself to a system you already know doesn't care about you, then get upset when it's abusive.
- "Grown up" is a children's game (which somehow doesn't involve taking responsibility for them world),
- you don't need college to learn or hone a skill,
- you can love a person and not marry them,
- you can't simultaneously dislike the world and justify bringing children into it,
- and if you can't afford your house you can always sell it and live in a van.
Open Source Software is one of the few decent things people still do, even if the world they're doing it for is not.
