Reply #7: My daughter IS that student [View All]

[LiberalEsto]

except she still has 8 credits to go, and works as a waitress, and lives at home. We're paying those loans for now, and it's hurting our finances seriously. I can't afford an eye exam for new glasses, or a spare tire and rim for the other daughter's car.

I don't know what she can do about it, except work toward electing a Democratic/Progressive political majority that puts the interests of working people over those of corporations.

We need to cut student loan interest rates down to 3 or 4% and make it possible to work off larger amounts of student loan debt through national service work such as teaching.
