The people he helped will likely incur more medical bills as they were that deep in debt due to long term care that they'll still need.

his show paid 60k for 15M in debt. liberal meteor headline makes you think oliver gave 15M of his own money away. wonder what the headline would be if trump did this?

>>76287258
it's not a lie to say you purchased 15M in debt. we're discussing how the media would treat it. if it were trump emphasis would be on the fact that trump didnt actually pay 1 dollar for each dollar forgiven. oliver on the other hand gets a headline that implies he spent 1 dollar for each dollar forgiven.

No, you're bitching like the whiny calves you always claim the left are. I'm tired as fuck of hearing middle class white boys living with their parents whine about literally everything.

Did they really forgive $15 million in debt?

yea the likelihood of that debt ever being collected was probably next to nothing. being that oliver's debt acquisition company probably wasn't as savvy as people that do that shit for a living he might have even overpaid.

nobody is hating on what oliver did. all the hate is against the media that gives oliver a glowing headline when the truth isnt nearly as remarkable.

He even says that it's "debt they no longer have to pay" when referring to it. So he bought this "zombie debt" that he talked about earlier, that's why it only cost him 60,000 dollars because the debt companies know this is money they can't collect.

Essentially he got fucked over by the debt companies because he accomplished absolutely nothing. That 15 million dollars is money they would never see so they're happy to get 60,000 for it.

obviously but it doesnt matter what is intentions are or who did it .. in the end it was a good thing

>>76288557
Debts that can never be collected on are bundled and sold for pennies. It was literally the cause of the housing crash when the banks ran out of suckers to sell worthless assets to.

Unsecured debts work the same. They're bundled and sold as potential "investments" to suckers and debt collectors that are willing to threaten to break kneecaps.

"Oi vey, for only a few thousand dollars you can get IOUs for fifteen million! Just think how many shekel you'll make if you can convince them to pay up!"

However, they're full of shit as once it hits the collections pool there is no way to tell that it is "medical" or some college bitch that just blew up daddy's credit cards. It's (((propaganda))), as usual.

From what I know. He bought a list of people that in total, owed 15 million debt, but legally don't owe it anymore. People can still buy this list and call the list and might get them to pay. It's not automatically forgiven, so he paid 60k for the list and isn't doing anything with it. You could pay 60k and collect 200k in total, which is what some people do for a living.

>you owe a company money
>company believes you will never repay what you owe
>company sells your debt to another company at a huge discount because it's extremely likely that you will never repay
>the other company starts calling you now asking for the full amount
>if the other company gets the full amount their profit is what you paid minus what they paid for the debt

oliver did this but for charity. when people complain about being called by debt collectors they're most likely talking about one of these situations. hope this makes sense.
>>
>>76289353
Um, have you ever watched Olivers show? This very much fits the bill of what they do on there. A writer was likely like "hey did you know you can do this" and they just ran with it, for ratings, which is what they're supposed to do you stupid fuck,

/pol/ is too easily triggered. It's upsetting, I like you guys, but get a hold of yourselves.
>>
>>76285325
there's nothing that creates more mixed feelings than very public philanthropy

This is the equivalent of forgiving debt of someone who has already declared bankruptcy or died. He literally spent 60k on shit information. He didn't help anyone except the type of person that would get scammed out of 500 bucks when they click on a pop up ad that claims the FBI is going to put them in jail unless they send a money gram to this Indian address.
>>
>>76285325
Meh I don't really care. He believes in government-paid healthcare, he thinks there's a big problem with medical debt and makes this move to draw attention to that issue. Poeple can debate about it.
What is cancerous about him is not what he says as much has what he omits. That bit about immigration and rasis parties in europe, how fucking dishonest do you have to be to treat the issue like that?. There is extensive poll data about what the muslim immigrants believe. They fucking know it and still ignore it, spread disinformation and pretend they thoroughly research topics so they must know right? xD drumpf xD
That level of dishonesty when you KNOW something is a threat to a country but choose to increase that threat spreading lies and half-truths for the advancement of your ideology. That is negligent genocide, these people are indirectly causing rapes and homicides for what they think will be "the better good".
I hope they stand before a judge one day

He bought 15 Millions worth of DEBT with $60k.
Debt doesn't magically equate actual money. You can buy a trillion worth of debt but it's still worthless if noone can pay that debt off.

A nice thing to do, sure, but lets not pretend he gave 15 million DOLLARS away.
>>
>>76288549
Name one thing he lied about
>>
>>76291569
Most important was the 15 million was debt that legally didn't have to be paid anymore. The only thing they did was stop someone else buying it and trying to collect some money from people that didn't know they no longer owed it.
