[mEDITate-OR:
not see that some of U.S. are drowning in debt...
even before we are able to earn the funds to re-pay it.
"They" said they did not increase your taxes.
"They" increased your parents and grandparents SS, Medicare & Medicare benefits.
But, "They" did not increase anybody's contribution to pay for it.
"They" will have to cut your benefits.
"They" have, and will even more, increase your tuition.
"They" did not increase your student aid.
"They" increased your more expensive student loans...
and cut the less expensive ones.
When you get, or got, out, there will be no jobs for you.
You will not be eligible for unemployment insurance...
you weren't working, by "their" definitions.
"They" wish you the absolute best...!
