"Have to" assumes the consequences of not doing it are worse than doing it. Sometimes it's better to just walk away from a loan and accept the consequences. Yeah, maybe Ukraine will be screwed in the process, but that doesn't get them their billions back.

"Which is why I have decided to reduce the amount of time I dedicate to sinking it."
The NYPost is a crappy conservative tabloid. I don't know why people keep posting stories from it.
They will if China threatens to punish them for it. Making it the other country's own interest to not fuck with them is the whole point of the warning.
From another story about the event, it wasn't even like odd jobs for a host, it was small job remote work for people in Germany and Asia. Stuff they would be doing at home and just kept doing during downtime on a long vacation.
Don't reply to any business emails while lounging by the pool, you need a work visa for that!
You really are shockingly naive. Yes, CBP officers are assholes dispositionally eager to treat non-Americans harshly and changes in administration do change policy, both explicitly and implicitly. Like their comrades in ICE, they've been itching to "get tough" the whole time.
Do you seriously think German teenagers were regularly getting strip searched for muddled responses to whether they would do any work and it was just for some reason not reported on prior to a couple months ago?
I've never once heard about German teenagers being strip searched because they had a bad answer about whether they would do any work during their vacation.
It being based on Spam is pretty accurate to the name. We love spam and use it all over the place. One of the most iconic local snacks is the spam musubi.
As a resident of Hawaii, I have no idea what Toast Hawaii is.
What an amazing coincidence that since the change in administrations there have been multiple horror stories about CBP detaining tourists at the slightest suspicion they might do housework or some undetermined gig work during a 3 week stay. Trying to pretend this is just how it always worked is naive in the extreme.
I think we're pretty well past giving the gestapo the benefit of the doubt.
“They contained sentences we didn’t actually say,” Pohl said of interrogation transcripts they were sent home with.
“They twisted it to make it seem as if we admitted that we wanted to work illegally in the US,” she told the German outlet Ostee Zeitung.

I agree, but it actually kind of makes a worse case for them. Sometimes investments don't work out. Sometimes loans are defaulted on too, but we have a much greater expectation that loans should be repaid.
If these people "invested" in 2023 expecting a certain level of growth and now we're in 2025 and the growth wasn't maintained, that's their fault for making a bad prediction with their "investment".
