EIGHT MILLION FUCKING PEOPLE NEED THAT GODDAMN MONEY TO GO TO SCHOOL. YEAH, SO WE'RE ALL LOW-INCOME, MY EFC IS 0000 FOR A FUCKING REASON, AND NOW, BECAUSE OF THE REPUBLICANS OBSESSION WITH ROBBING THE POOR TO FEED THE RICH, I MAY LOSE AN ENTIRE SEMESTER'S WORTH OF TUITION.

I need that grant money not only to pay for classes, but I need it to pay rent and eat. My paychecks aren't even $300 every two weeks now because of the fucking tax hikes, and now you're taking MORE money away from me simply because I'm a full-time student and I need it to survive? I'm not on welfare, I'm not a degenerate or an addict, I'm a goddamn student! An adult non-traditional one for that matter. It's bad enough some Teabaggers want to remove a student's right to vote (something about us not being "true citizens" or something...) but this...This is just putting more fucking money in Sallie Mae's fat wallet. It's going to reactivate the private loan programs and put more students who can't afford it into serious debt simply because they want a bachelor's degree, which WON'T EVEN GUARANTEE THEM A GODDAMN JOB THESE DAYS. 

I'm back in school for a fucking reason, and apparently, it's in goddamn vain.

It's important to support the growth of the serf class.

Sallie Mae is smiling too. All the way to the Federal Reserve to collect the checks they get from the government for every student that defaults on their loan.
