So how has federal politics affected you?

The most obvious one is that my partner is going to have to start paying down his student loans again. We don't really have the money for that. But, sucks to be us, I guess!

What's your ideal endgame?

Biden waving his hands to forgive debts is a one-off that only helps a specific batch of folks. For me personally, I'd rather he start an investigation into why college tuitions are so high in the first place, but I don't know if that's actually within the presidents power, and if anything actionable can come out of it.
