Verification Codes.

One-Time my ass, more like, repeated times. I'm so tired of verification codes up the ass these days. Just today, I had to reset my PayPal password. So that meant there was a code sent to an e-mail address after the reset process was set, to begin with. Then I had to go through the obstacle of verifying the information of the account. And then even after the password was reset, I'm sent ANOTHER freaking code right after!

And it's even more frustrating to deal with, with my bank. I've gotten random verification checks for making internal transfers within my account. Things I've done without any issue. But just one day, I got THREE verification checks to do what I needed to do!

This verification shit has gotten out of hand! I want it to just die, just like captcha. Whatever purpose they originally were intended to do, is lost in translation, because now they're just obstacles that wastes our time every minute we have to bother with them.

    Debt for whom? Your personal debt, or more generally debt within society? If society, for people, companies, governments?

    Personally I would love to see all debt incurred by individuals for basic survival or education disappear. There should never have been a need for such debt in the first place, it's a societal failure.

    However, when it comes to wealthier individuals taking out loans for luxury items, or corporations and governments going into debt, then no. Properly managed debt is an important financial tool but these debts need to be repaid.
