You can drop hundreds of dollars on an e reader but you cant pay back a loan from protip?

If you had travelled the world like Indy instead of being an ignorant small-town conservative, you would know that many cultures don't obsess over loans like Americans. China, for example, takes a very enlightened view on debt. It's very normal there for someone to not repay a debt if it doesn't suit them.

I've travelled to many different countries and it is normal everywhere to repay a loan if you're not a scumbag. And I'm not American, nor am I conservative, nor do I live in a small town.

Besides that, it is customary to follow the cultural tradition of the lender, who here is American. If he did not wish to be repaid, he would have given you a gift, not a loan.

I think you are exaggerating, because this is a classically small-town conservative mindset. You show an aversion to other cultures and demand that everything be done like it is in America. Please, for your own sake, travel the world. There is more to life than your rural town and Fox News.

So suddenly Chinas view on loans is enlightened because their terms suit you. Would it still be the case if you were the loanee? I think not.

Since when is repaying loans a small town conservative mindset? I have certainly been to more countries than Matt has.
Also, surely such a multicultural expert would know to make clear that he holds these views regarding loans when borrowing money from someone he knows does not hold said views. Of course, that would require some modicum of basic human decency, and "decent human" and "matt Miller" are terms that cannot be associated, as so neatly demonstrated in this thread amongst countless others.

You mean lender. Loanee = borrower.

Also am I the only person who still uses one of the earliest generation Kindles? Why do people feel the need to replace them each year? It's not like any of the new features revolutionise the experience.

> 1. I have been to way more countries than you, I can assure you.
Other than China, list the countries you've been to.

I still have a Kindle from 2011 and love it. The only things that could be noticeably improved for me would be a higher resolution screen (which is minor since it only really affects reading comic books, which I rarely do), and having some kind of built in light for reading in the dark. Maybe quicker screen transitions too but that's less important considering it transitions about as quickly as you could turn a page in a physical book. But to me, those things aren't worth spending $300 to get a new model.

"The Oasis features a whopping 25 LED lights, more than twice what Amazon put on the 2017 Oasis (12 LEDs) and five times as many as you get in the latest Paperwhite (5 LEDs). The new Oasis maxes out at 167 nits of brightness, which handily outshines the 78-nit Paperwhite and narrowly edges out the 155-nit 2017 Oasis."
