student loan argh

Damn you Mr. President! So I just received my student loan bill today for this past month since the increased rates set to offset the tax breaks to the rich. And the interest accrued this past month is 50% more than it's been in past months.

Holy shit, that really sucks. That's why I'm trying really hard to avoid student loans.

But how else will we keep Paris Hilton and the Olsen twins in Balenciaga bags and Marni?

YIKES

EEEEE, did you consolidate?

I think the hike is generally directed as "reducing the deficit". I assumed it was all about the war, but is it also for tax breaks for the rich? I bet it's both because both contribute to the deficit.
