I am beside myself. Pell grants, which is money for students to go to college, are becoming unavailable for 85,000 students, and 1.2 million students who are currently receiving Pell grants will have their funding decreased.
Where is this money going, you ask?
This bill is going to help pay $2 million for a presidential yacht.
Think about this...
85,000 students will be unable to attend college in order for the president to have a yacht.
Also, farmers will be loosing $400 million of soil conservation money in order for us to make an American Cotton Museum in Texas.
I am so fucking outraged at this atrocity that I can't even see straight.
