Description
President Biden you are the very best president ever!!! I'm definitely voting for you and all the other democrats!!! You have shown that you truly care! Thanks for the $20,000 on my student loans!!! I've been having such a hard time making ends meet these days due to Covid. I was lucky enough to get $600 extra per week on top of WA state unemployment for a year and a half. I just couldn't find a job that was up to my caliber. I have two degrees that were paid for with Pell grants. Thank God for Pell grants. They helped a lot. It enabled me to not have to work while I was in college and with the extra money left over from the student loans I took out I was able to get a nice new Prius and take a couple long vacations to Puerto Rico. But finding a job in my field has been really tough so it was nice to save up so much money with the Covid relief money. Also I'm a single mom now so things are really hard because all I get are the basic tax breaks for my kids and just the free public education with free breakfast and lunch only during the school season...not Summers. I wish they'd serve them more vegan options though. But the food stamp program doesn't allow me to get alcohol or marijuana. It's hard with all this stress to not be able to buy a nice Sativa. I know I shouldn't do it but its legal now and it's only occasional. My friend Roger from church started a fundraising page that has helped some. I wish people would donate more though because it's really hard being a single mom especially when there are no jobs close enough to daycare that match my degrees. I learned at Evergreen State College to not settle so I am not about to work in retail or fast food. I'm above that level now since I have my degrees. One thing though I've heard some of my friends talking and some people on CNN and MSNBC saying is that Biden really should've done more for us. I'm starting to agree that he should've paid off more like $50,000 for every student loan borrower. I'll take the $20,000 but I know they could and should give us more. On the bright side we haven't had to pay on our student loans for two and a half years now but so what?! They charged us too much interest anyway!!! It's so unfair!! A lot of people don't understand how hard it is trying to be a single mom. And now I have another one on the way. It's not my fault though. I can tell you that right now. I just don't understand where these people on Fox News get off saying we shouldn't get out loans forgiven. That's what good people do is forgive debts. Don't they want to be good people? So thanks again President Biden and democrats for making sure we're not forgotten. I'll definitely keep voting for you. I love you all!!! But if you decide to forgive more debt I'll take it. Hint hint.
