Because we waited too long.

When you take out debt there’s a period where you can pay it back without much impact. But if you continue to ignore it eventually you’ll have to make life changes to pay it back.

If you continue to ignore it you’ll ruin your life.

How could we not? In the western world we might be able to, but that means poor people will start dying elsewhere.
