    Put down the muscatel.  

    Lets hear a story over a stiff shooter.

    SHOT:
    @RepGaryPeters: We must act to prevent student loan rates from doubling July 1. Find out how an increase would affect MI families: Uhhhh... .

    CHASER:
    Gary Peters Voted Against A Bill To Extend A Lower Rate For Student Loans. "Passage of the bill that would tie student loan interest rates to the 10-year Treasury note rate. Interest rates on all federal student loans (except Perkins loans) issued on or after July 1, 2013 would be set each year at the 10-year Treasury note plus 2.5 percent. Rates for graduate and parent PLUS loans would be set at the 10-year note plus 4.5 percent. Overall interest rates would be capped at 8.5 percent and 10.5 percent, respectively." (H.R. 1911, CQ Vote #183: Passed 221-198: R 217-8; D 4-190, 5/23/13, Peters Voted Nay)

    If Gary Peters was actually worried about student loan rates, why did he oppose a bill to prevent the rates from doubling for Michigan students and then hide it from voters?

    ahhh..  Love the slow burn going down.

    What difference... (none / 0) (#1)

    ...at this point does it make!?!?

    Thank you for that never-get-tired-of line, Mrs. Thunder Rodham Thighs.

    Besides, government needs to get the Hell out of the college loan Socialism Indoctrination funding debt racket anyway.  Who in their right mind would want to take on any "fixed rate" mortgage without the house only to be screwed by STEM Amnesty advocates like the Governerd.

    Bottom line - in Michigan, the poverty leeches will vote Peters, and the Corporate Welfare leeches will push whomever is the final Team R vote.

    The rest of us who see our state, and federal governments totally off its rocker with its defined rolls will either hold their nose voting the lessor of two evils, or not bother wasting their time.

    It is what it is.
