"Please don't ignore the system of oppression we built to trap you in after you no longer have a use for it. Your worth as a person is still tied to your value to the financial industry - here's why we think so! So remember, keep spending, spending, spending! Keep paying interest on debt! Don't cancel the credit lines you no longer need - keep them active, instead, and keep using them!"
