    If you haven’t heard about it, that 50k is actually a debt trap. See, they get the money, but if they aren’t perfect little Gestapo thugs for five full years, they have to pay it all back. Poor performance reviews can also trigger a mandatory repayment, even if they aren’t fired.

      Well I am at least happy to hear the magastapo thugs are also probably financially ruined. Now if we can see a little ruin into the rest of their lives that’d really brighten my day.
