Typical republicans…

Well…just a short one a little article that just came over Twitter about the student loan debacle…in case you haven’t heard, the interest rate on student loans is set to double if the senate doesn’t do something about it in the next week or so….and the dems had a perfectly reasonable plan to pay for it by cutting some corporate subsidies and tax loopholes for the rich..but, in typical fashion, the repubs are protecting these tax giveaways and have basically said to all the students that have loans to go to hell…they would rather have students pay more tax (and that is what it is is a tax and the extra money goes straight to the big banks) than to have the rich folks pay their fair share. I just can’t believe…oh, wait…I can believe the repubs would do that…it just shows they don’t give a damn about anyone but their donors…geez…
