"Yesterday I announced that, as president, I’ll establish a student loan debt forgiveness program for Pell Grant recipients who start a business that operates for three years in disadvantaged communities."
So let's see if I get this straight. If someone proves their worth by getting a grant AND then succeeding against some really steep odds for three years (which probably suggests a lot of financial support tucked somewhere), they get bailed out, and EVERY OTHER STUDENT in the fuckin' USA, trying to do ANYTHING else, can go fuck off and struggle with oppressive poverty.
This is not exactly a shining new hope I'm happy to vote for. Fucking Republican.

@Leucrotta Kamala Harris is a fucking cop.

re: politics
@CrownedRat I really worry that it's been decided that she's their candidate. Voting Clinton/Kane - especially after Sanders was so obviously engineered out of being their candidate - felt like a chore. Voting for Harris/Biden/whatever moderate-leaning-conservative they officially decide on, is going to feel worse.
