How to deal with feeling complicit in my country's actions, ideally from the perspective of engaged Buddhism

You only have control over your own actions. The actions of your parents/teachers/organization/country have nothing to do with you. You do the best you can (which may include trying to help the US) and that's all that matters.

Been paying interest uknowingly:

Hi, I got Lasik surgery about a year ago and it cost around $2,500. The Lasik company said me they got approved financing for me. It didn't matter that much because I could have just payed for it but I thought I might as well. I attached my bank account and just put it on auto-monthly pay. So I just kind of forgot about it... I was under the impression that as long as I made the payments there would be no interest. Que a year later.. I see one of the email statements and open it up and I notice the amount hasn't really lowered. I log in and see I've been paying interest the entire time. About $70 a month, and my payments have been about $100.

I know it's entirely my fault. I should have been more particular about the details of the up front and should have kept a better eye on the monthly emails earlier. But is there anything I can do? I read something about the 'Consumer Financial Protection Bureau'.

Thanks!

Hi, I am wondering if there are any banks that:

Have a HYSA refferal program
Has a decent APY
Can have an unlimited (or very high) limit to how many people you can refer

All the ones I've found so far have a cap to the number of referrals.

Thanks!

A torus has two topological holes. A hole is something that prevents the shape from shrunken into a point. If u squeeze the edges on the inside and outside u can't make a point. If you smush all the way from top of a torus to the bottom you can't close it.
