    They can’t force you to give them money you don’t have. Just leave the country.

        Read my other comments on it. You can get money from the gov (well more than enough to leave)

          Where are you going to get the money or skills to get some other country to accept you, though? If you had those, you wouldn’t be trying to leave (at least for this reason) in the first place!

            This is a fictional situation where a person loaned money to go/finish school. If you went to school, have a shit ton of debt, AND don’t want to do anything to improve, sure.

            Plenty (PLENTY) of countries take Americans no questions asked. The tough ones to get into are the ones that check your skin color before entry. But for those in particular, just be white and you’ll likely get in anyway. Such is life :/

              It’s not a question of getting in; it’s a question of getting in with the kind of visa that allows you to work and being allowed to stay long-term.

              For example, even a white engineer like me would have trouble immigrating to somewhere like New Zealand without already having an employer lined up beforehand. The relevant type of visa isn’t even accepting new “expressions of interest” right now, LOL.

                Using a tiny-ass country as an example of tough immigration is disingenuous. Plenty of places will take you. Open your mind.

                  I’m reasonably confident that Canada, Australia, the UK, and Ireland (i.e. the rest of the wealthy English-speaking countries that an American would most likely want to go to), along with the rest of western Europe, have similar restrictions.
