How is that even possible? An average middle-class couple with a decent combined income and steady employment would have tremendous difficulty managing the monthly payments on a loan of that size. How could a person with much lower income and no steady employment expect to handle it? How would they be able to make even a single monthly payment?

isn't 40 hours an arbitrary amount? Is there something in DNA which makes people work 40 hours? What about all those people who have to hold 2 or 3 jobs?

Oh! Thanks, leader-type-men, for all your words! I hope they transcribed all of your words quite exactly. I hate for any liberal media bias to get injected into my stories, as it usually does whenever some so-called journalist cites so-called facts and logic and history.

I hear that one of the first things on your agenda is to pass some kind of tax reform. Oh, right, CORPORATE tax reform. For Corporations.

That should be good for all of us non-corporation people, because of course it is. I'm sure a think-tank will explain why. If I even cared to listen.

Anyway, thanks for the many many words. I'm sure they're all quite valuable, and I will treat them as if they were literal promises, instead of just written acknowledgements of the transient rudimentary burping noises you made as your lips moved while repeating the same hollow platitudes that you've been doing for as long as you've been elected.

Ha ha, I'm kidding. I already forgot whatever you said! I'm sure it doesn't matter, I'm just glad I got to vote for the winning team! GO OUR SIDE TOUGH ON CRIME BENGHAZI!!

See, the blah guy didn't do what we wanted him to, his friends said we couldn't do it 47 times in a row (or something), now we have brought our friends and we are gonna MAKE him.

We will get to "doing our jobs", whatever that means, after we overturn his stupid law. So there.

So basically the plan is to hope the President gets Carpal Tunnel from vetoing everything that lands on his desk?

Best way to upgrade is either cut off funding. I wonder when happy hour starts for them.
