I still went, but it took me 7 years to get through because I dropped my credit load to part-time. Had to work to pay each semester and avoid loans!

We put our son through college and med. school. Cost a bunch but we budgeted for years.

I wouldn't say I was fortunate, but the military paid for my degrees in return for 6 years of military service.

The government needs no more money. Making tax cuts permanent saves the working people

The only positive is for the ultra-wealthy people and large corporations. There are no benefits for the average American taxpayers. It will cause more inflation. That means even higher prices for groceries and other goods.

Debbi McMahon

Because Trump has cut many much-needed programs such as the National Parks and the Dept. of Education. Bad moves!
